Van Cortlandt Park-The Back Trails
Details
Moderately paced around 5 miles- Hike in the back woods of Van Cortlandt Park including the OCA (Old Croton Aqueduct) Trail. We will also hike the OCA into Yonkers a short distance. Our time out should be around 2.5 hours. Leaders-in-training for AMC are encouraged to attend. A large group is expected. Inclement weather will postpone the hike. No pets. Guests who can keep up the pace are also welcome.
Take the Number 1 train to the last stop in the Bronx at Broadway and 242 St. Meet 10:00 a.m. on the nearby benches by the restrooms. Sign up ONLY if you intend to attend. We will have a restroom break during the hike. Wet weather cancels.
