Want to go hiking and visit a small town in Westchester?

 

After taking a train from Manhattan, it’s a quick drive to get to Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, Westchester County’s largest park. It’s 4,315 acres has varied terrain and miles of wooded trails. It’s a popular destination for picnicking, lean-to camping, fishing and cross-country skiing year-round.

Afterwards, we will explore the small town of Katonah. From quaint antique shops, cafes, and restaurants, you’ll see all that is has to offer before returning to the city!
