A Beautiful Garden with Stunning Hudson River Views!

Untermyer Gardens is such a beautiful place to explore! The garden is quite spacious, with so many different areas to wander through and discover. I especially loved the Walled Garden, with its beautiful Persian-inspired design and intersecting water channels, as well as The Vista, where you can enjoy breathtaking views of the Hudson River and the Palisades.

The Temple of Love was another highlight, with its unique stone structures and picturesque setting. There are so many wonderful photo spots throughout the gardens, along with plenty of peaceful places to sit, relax, and enjoy the scenery. It’s the perfect place to take a leisurely walk and escape the busy city for a while.

One tip for visitors: the main parking lot is relatively small and can fill up quickly. If you can’t find a spot, check for street parking along North Broadway rather than spending too much time waiting. You can also look for parking along Warburton Avenue near the lower entrance.

Overall, Untermyer Gardens is a hidden gem in Yonkers and absolutely worth a visit, especially if you love beautiful gardens, architecture, photography, and stunning river views!

Beautiful gardens! We really enjoyed walking through the gardens and down to the woodland trails. Beautiful fountains and waterfalls. The views of the Hudson River were amazing. Somewhat a small parking lot so get there early. It’s amazing that this is a free garden. We spent 3-4 hours here. Could have stayed longer.

Beautiful gardens/park free of charge in Yonkers worth a visit.

Plenty of parking in the lot(s) adjacent to the grounds. Lots of trails leading all the way up to the Hudson, offering amazing views of the Palisades and surrounding areas. Lots of pretty gardens and flowers as well as a great place to take any type of photography, wedding photos included.

This place must've been something amazing back in the day when Greystone Mansion was on its grounds, but the park commission did a very nice job updating the gardens to its current state. We will definitely return during another season.

Absolutely beautiful place! Untermyer Gardens is one of those hidden gems that feels like stepping into another world. The architecture, fountains, flowers, and incredible views over the Hudson River create a truly magical atmosphere. Every corner is different and perfect for photos. It’s peaceful, elegant, and wonderfully maintained. Definitely worth visiting, especially if you love gardens, history, and beautiful scenery. I would happily come back again!

Untermyer Gardens is an absolute hidden gem and one of the most breathtaking spaces in New York. From the moment you step inside the spectacular Indo-Persian Walled Garden, it feels like you've been transported to another world. The grounds are meticulously maintained, with intricate mosaics, beautiful waterways, and stunning floral arrangements.
​Walking down the grand staircase of The Vista offers the most incredible, sweeping views of the Hudson River and the Palisades. Be sure not to miss the Temple of Love—it is incredibly peaceful and a perfect spot for photos. Whether you are a history buff, an architecture lover, or just looking for a quiet oasis to walk through, this place is entirely magical. Highly recommend taking a guided tour if you can, but wandering the grounds on your own is just as perfect.
