Van Cortlandt Park

Van Cortlandt Park is home to the Bloodhounds men's and women's cross country teams. It is located in the Bronx, just north of the tip of Manhattan, and consists of more than a thousand acres atop ridges and valleys. Currently, it is New York City's third largest park.

Playing fields and playgrounds are scattered about the park's edges, surrounding a richly forested heartland fed by Tibbets Brook. The park is home to the country's first public golf course, the oldest house in the Bronx, and the borough's largest freshwater lake. From the quiet green shade of its oak forests to the crisp white mantle of cricket players atop the Parade Ground, the park boasts a past rich in culture, well-versed in history, and blessed with the intrinsic beauty of nature.
