2. A wildlife refuge in the heart of Philipstown ! The marsh, which sits at the meeting point of the Hudson River and Indian Brook, is home to more than 200 bird species, including at least 50 that use it for breeding. It’s heaven. There are herons, osprey, eagles, egrets, cormorants, shore and song birds, peregrine falcons, beavers, deer. The marsh is best experienced via a moderate hike to a 700' boardwalk, which also offers stunning views of the Hudson River Highlands and the United States Military Academy at West Point. Constitution Marsh Audubon Center and Sanctuary is a unique and beautiful tidal marsh located in Putnam County, New York, and serves as vital natural habitat for the Hudson River Estuary.
History. A series of channels and dykes were constructed through the marsh in the 1830s during an attempt to grow wild rice. According to the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation, Constitution Marsh is one of only five large, tidal marshes on the Hudson River. At 270 acres, it has been a sanctuary since 1970.
