Garnsey Park is located in the Town of Clifton Park. Read about the family for whom the park is named. The trailhead parking area is located along the north side of Route 146 (between Waite and Wing roads) approximately 1/4 mile east of the intersection with Nott Road.

Great site. I drive past Garnsey Park to/from work (Mechanicville native) and have always wondered what was actually back there, as well as a couple other parks. There’s an unfortunate lack of information about the trails in the area in general and your site’s a big help!
Thanks, Mike. I appreciate your comments very much. Glad to hear my site was informative. I encourage you to explore a couple of other parks/nature preserves just off Route 146, also west of Clifton Park – namely Veterans Memorial Park (especially the forest trail) and Woodcock Preserve. Happy trails!
I also wanted to thank you for posting pictures of this park. I’m new to the area and I like seeing what the nature walk will look like before heading out with my young son. Thank you!
