Saxon Woods Moderate Hike
Details
Join us for a moderate hike of approximately 4 to 5 miles in Westchester’s renowned Saxon Woods Park. The hike will begin in the northern section of the park, located north of the Hutchinson River Parkway, which is named after Anne Hutchinson, and continue throughout the southern section.. This event is ideal for hikers who prefer a moderate pace, as the route includes both hiking trails and hard paved paths. Restrooms are available for your convenience. The trails feature scenic views and provide an excellent opportunity to enjoy the company of fellow hikers. Newcomers and those who have not been on the trails recently are especially encouraged to participate. Guests are welcome, provided they can keep up with the group. Please note that inclement weather may cause the hike to be postponed, and pets are not permitted.
Drivers should meet at 9:45 AM on the benches located at the entrance of the parking lot, on the right side by the Saxon Woods Pool. The GPS address for the meeting location is: 1800 Mamaroneck Ave, White Plains, NY.
Public transportation is available to Saxon Woods Park via the New Haven Line Metro-North train, with service to the Mamaroneck, NY station in Westchester County. From Grand Central Terminal, take the 8:36 AM train, which arrives in Mamaroneck at 9:18 AM. Upon arrival, hikers are encouraged to arrange a ride-sharing service such as Uber or a local taxi, especially if there are others in the group who can share the cost. Have the driver take you to Saxon Woods Pool. No swimming today but a nice hike. Bring water and snacks. At the conclusion of the hike, a complimentary ride back to the train station will be provided. For further details, please contact Steve at 914-953-2222 via text message. Please, no no-shows.
