The Quogue Wildlife Refuge is a 305 acre non-profit nature preserve that was established in 1934, and is home to diverse wildlife including some that are permanently injured and require human care to survive. 365 days a year, visitors can enjoy walking seven miles of trails to explore diverse habitats including forests and ponds, as well as the ecologically rare Dwarf Pines in the Pine Barrens. Owls, falcons, hawks, and other native New York animals that have permanent injuries are housed in the Outdoor Wildlife Complex and can be visited any day of the year. Just beyond the Pollinator Garden, is our greenhouse where you can visit giant tortoises. The Fairy Dell Boardwalk is a catwalk through beautiful tidal wetlands of the Quogue Wildlife Refuge. It traverses through the historic Fairy Dell Tract along the headwaters of Quantuck Creek, and overlooks Quantuck Creek at three terminal platforms. Inside of the Nature Center, huge picture windows offer spectacular views of Old Ice Pond, as well as a great spot to bird watch or enjoy some quiet time. Come by and visit!
Trails are open daily, sunrise to sunset.
Admission is free.
