About	Van Cortlandt Park is the third largest park in New York, with more than a thousand acres over the ridges and valleys. The park has playing fields and playgrounds at the edge of the parks. It is a gathering place for rock climbers and visitors to enjoy hiking and bike trails. The park hosts the first public golf course, the most prominent house in the Bronx, and the city's most magnificent freshwater lake. Van Cortlandt Park also has a famous historic landmark trail, the old croton aqueduct trail that runs along the area's ancient water tunnel path. It has cultural and educational programs and resources to develop parks, fields, and playgrounds. There are benches to relax and to watch people go by or relax and eat breakfast while watching the sunrise over the tree line. Van Cortlandt Park is suitable for picnics, recreational sports fields, and play areas for children and the heart-felt young.
