Hike: Radio Central, Rocky Point Pine Barrens

Come on a hike in the Rocky Point Pine Barrens State Forest to visit the historic site of Radio Central where the first wireless transatlantic message was sent across the Atlantic.

Come on a hike in the Rocky Point Pine Barrens State Forest to visit the historic site of Radio Central where the first wireless transatlantic message was sent across the Atlantic. We'll also see remnants of the past use of the property such as the few remaining downed transmitting towers of that era when it was owned by the RCA Corporation. The 2.1-mile flat, easy walk will be led by Lee McAllister, author of the book Hiking Long Island and a naturalist/photographer familiar with the land & its history. Meet on Rocky Point-Yaphank Road, 1.5 miles north of Whiskey Road & 1.1 miles south of Route 25A, where there is a yellow gated entrance on the east side of the road with ample parking.
