9. LITTLE BELT

“But what is this on the right? It is a charming grassy hollow, only a little below the level of the Avenue, open to the sun, and surrounding another shady knoll, thickly covered with deciduous and evergreen trees, with groups of loose stones, over which vines creep and blossom. This open girt of meadow is called Little Belt.”

— Benson J. Lossing, Vassar College and Its Founder, 1867

Hudson River Valley Greenway

The Springside Walking Tour is funded, in part, by a grant from the Hudson River Valley Greenway.

The land that now comprises Springside is part of the homelands of the Munsee Lenape, Indigenous peoples who have an enduring connection to this place.

Springside Landscape Restoration, a 501c3 not-for-profit organization, owns and stewards Springside.
