Wave Hill is a museum without walls with a living collection of more than 4,000 varieties of trees, shrubs, vines, and herbaceous plants. It is the only public garden in the New York metropolitan area practicing a unique combination of classic horticultural craftsmanship and daring design.
Here you will find a multitude of linked gardens, distinct from one another and intimate, as well as wide-open stretches of land. Frequently described as an urban oasis, Wave Hill comes as an enchanting surprise. The 28-acre site itself is stunning—high above the Hudson River with sweeping views and lots of open sky.
Wave Hill’s 28-acre site includes gardens, greenhouses and an 8-acre woodland. As you explore Wave Hill, please remember that it is a carefully cultivated garden, which is very different from a park. Our tips and guidelines help you navigate our expansive grounds and protect our living collection. Please be respectful of all that grows here and have a wonderful time exploring.
To welcome you safely, advance ticket reservations are required for all visitors. You may come any time during open hours on the day of your reservation.

Walk the gardens with Untermyer Gardens Conservancy President

Ages 5 to adult
Children need to be accompanied by an adult
$40
Stephen F. Byrns founded the Untermyer Gardens Conservancy in 2011. A graduate of Princeton and Columbia Universities, Byrns was a founding partner of BKSK Architects, a successful architectural firm in New York City that was established in 1985. Byrns lived in Yonkers in the 1990’s, when he discovered Untermyer Park and Gardens. He revisited it in 2010 when told that the fountains had been turned on after decades of disuse. The more he learned about Samuel Untermyer’s garden, the more he was convinced that a conservancy should be established to work with the City of Yonkers to make it once again one of the greatest gardens in America.

Public Docent-led Tours
Sundays, Late April through Late October
11 am – 12:30 pm
$10 per person
This tour highlights the history of the estate from its origin in 1862, through each of its three owners, emphasizing its world famous heyday in the Untermyer years, its dramatic decline after 1940, and the remarkable restoration efforts that have been ongoing from 2011 to the present day. There will be an emphasis on Samuel Untermyer and his wife and their place in early 20th century history as well as discussion of the remarkable architecture of the gardens. There will be some limited discussion of the horticulture but the magnificent plantings will mostly speak for themselves.
Please join us by the guard booth near the parking lot for a 90 minute tour of the gardens. Reservations are required. Children twelve and under are free. As the tour goes down the steps of the Vista and then back up a woodland path to the Temple of Love, we suggest sturdy shoes. Strollers are not advised for the tours.
Tours will alternately focus on history and gardens. Additionally, our president will lead premium tours one Sunday every month.
Dogs other than service animals are not permitted in the gardens at any time.
Commercial and professional photography requires a permit from the City of Yonkers.
Private tours and lectures can be arranged. Please contact us at jbernard@untermyergardens.org to discuss arrangements.
