It's amazing because, I lived in Staten Island, I was born in 1990, And lived here in Staten Island, mostly South Shore of Staten Island, from 1990 to 2001. In 2001 I moved to New Jersey, not too far away from the Outerbridge Crossing. I then moved back to Staten Island, to Annadale, in 2012, and then back to Jersey same year and back to Staten Island in 2013. Then, from Annadale I moved to New Dorp. I lived on New Dorp Lane and Richmond Road corner. When I was a young boy living in Annadale, I was a trailblazer, an explorer, yet, surprisingly, I had NEVER heard of this location and trail. It took until AFTER I moved away from New Dorp town area in 2015 that I discovered High Rock Park. I took a date there as a romantic hike , and boy, was I pleAsed with this location. It doesn't take much hiking and climbing to get to the top, the summit of High Rock, but when you do, oh boy it is breathtaking and amazing. We went in Autumn and the view was amazing with brown green orange purple red and yellow leaves everywhere. It was straight up awe enspiring and I would suggest anyone...

This is a couple of miles away from The JCC. So next time if I do come here I'll be prepared and ready. If you want to climb some hills and take walks with your dog ๐, come here...
ย ย ย Read moreChange your park hours! Make sure to mention that the gate to the park closes at 5pm! My car was stuck in the parking area due to the gate closing at 5pm when online it says it closes at 1am. It's ridiculous. Taking a look at the gate , with the most tiniest letters it says the closing time 5pm. Nobodys calling to find out information about parks, they check online. So make sure to prepare people for that. It is so ridiculous. FIX HOURS INFORMATION, THAT NORMAL PEOPLE CAN SEE REAL ,CORRECT INFORMATION. IF I COULD, I WOULD PUT 0 STAR, BUT NOT FOR PARK ,BUT FOR PERSON WHO'S RESPONSIBLE FOR ONLINE INFORMATION. NEVER IN MY LIFE HAD THIS HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE IN ANY...
