This little dock had a job once. Back when Central Park's Lake was a transit system, Wagner Cove was one of the landings where you'd actually climb into a rowboat that was headed somewhere else. It’s named for Robert F. Wagner, the mayor who took on Tammany Hall in the 1950s.
The pool is open! If you’re spending a summer day in Central Park, this is one of the easiest ways to cool off. It’s a great stop when the sun is high and you need a little break from exploring.

Summer is one of the most requested seasons for weddings. It’s also when the park’s gardens hit their fullest stretch of the year. Roses, hydrangeas, and late-summer perennials fill in the borders, the lawns go deep green, and the light stays soft well into the evening.
Hallett Nature Sanctuary is a four-acre woodland just off 5th Avenue and Central Park South, with walking trails, a waterfall that drops into the Pond, and migratory birds year-round. It was closed for over 80 years as a bird refuge, but now open since 2016. Stop by this weekend!
Most people walk past Belvedere Castle without knowing they can go inside. It’s free to enter, offers panoramic views from both balconies, and is still one of the most surprising things about Central Park.
Model sailboat racing on Central Park’s Conservatory Water dates back to 1875. You can still find the skippers out there every weekend, adjusting sails and reading the wind like nothing has changed.
From a rowboat on the Central Park Lake, the Manhattan skyline sits just above the tree line, and the crowds on Bow Bridge look like a painting. It’s NYC from an angle most people never find.
Most people visit Central Park for years without ever finding The Pool. This Mother's Day, book a full-service gourmet picnic right at the water's edge. Tulips included. https://t.co/bSU3NOJeFv

The Mall’s American elms in full spring green, one of the most breathtaking canopies in any city and a reminder of why this place feels unlike anywhere else.

Shakespeare Garden grows only plants and flowers mentioned in Shakespeare's plays and sonnets, and spring is when it really comes into its own. It's one of the quieter, more tucked-away spots in the park, and worth seeking out.

Turtle Pond has always been one of those spots that rewards you for slowing down, and this little green heron is a perfect example of why. Whether you’re stopping by this weekend or just dreaming about a visit, the pond is worth the walk.
