Burger Hill Park

Route 9 and Route 9G
845-876-4213

Rhinebeck, Dutchess County (76 acres)—A half-mile trail leads uphill through open meadows abounding with birds to a 550-foot hilltop affording panoramic vistas stretching from the Berkshires to the Catskills. In winter Burger Hill is one of the region’s prime sledding destinations. The park is named in memory of Drayton Grant (1948-2012), an environmental lawyer and long-time vice president of the Winnakee Land Trust, who encouraged Scenic Hudson to protect Burger Hill for public enjoyment when it was threatened with development in 1996. Scenic Hudson donated the park to the Winnakee Land Trust in 2005.
