Theodore Roosevelt Island

Built as a memorial to America’s 26th president, visitors can escape to Theodore Roosevelt Island on foot and enjoy unspoiled trails and wildlife. A birders haven, the 1.5 mile Swamp Trail offers an ideal stroll through swampy woods and cattail marshes. Don’t forget to take a selfie with Teddy!
