North Hills is a charming village in the town of North Hempstead, Nassau County, Long Island, New York. The steep shoreline and rugged terrain of this picturesque area is a result of the melting of a glacier which moved from Canada and ended up at current day Long Island about 1,100 years ago. Shelter Rock the largest glacial boulder on Long Island, weighing approximately 2,600 tons, is evidence of the melted glacier. The huge overhang of the giant rock made it a perfect shelter, hence the name.
