Please also remember that all of our sanctuaries are closed to
visitors between dusk and dawn. We are grateful for the continuing
care of our sanctuary neighbors in protecting these special habitats.
For
protection of the wildlife and habitat and the enjoyment and safety
of our visitors, camping, fires, biking, hunting and motorized
vehicles are not permitted in any of our sanctuaries.
Road
Directions
Haas
Sanctuary is located between Tripp Street and Sheather Road in New Castle.
Traveling south on Route 128 from Mount Kisco toward Armonk,
look for Sheather Road on the left about a 1/2 mile from the Mount
Kisco-New Castle line. Take Sheather Road to a four-way junction,
turn right onto Tripp Street. The sanctuary entrance
is on the left, less than 1/2 mile. Parking is very limited.
Spring 2008 update: We anticipate moving the entrance for the sanctuary to Sheather Road in the next few months. The current sanctuary trail entrance on Tripp Street is unmarked at this time.
For the courtesy of the adjacent property owners, we request that
sanctuary visitors park on the shoulder of the road in front of
the sanctuary sign and pull off the road as much as possible.
Please be careful to respect the privacy of nearby residences. [Trail Map]

With
advance notice, we may be able to provide your group with a guided
tour. Even if your group wishes to visit without a guide, please
contact us in advance. For the best possible experience for your
group, we want to ensure that your visit does not coincide with
another group's visit. [More
About Sanctuary Tours]
Our
sanctuaries are maintained by a part-time caretaker and volunteers
on trail maintenance days. A group of volunteer "Trail Walkers"
monitors individual sanctuaries and reports on their conditions.[More
