Blue Trail is a short, easy out-and-back hike in New York, about 1.1 miles from the town of East Woods. The route is 0.72 miles long, with a total elevation gain of 75 feet, and it reaches a high point of 689 feet. The climb is steady, with the steepest stretch at about 0.3 miles in, and the trail is rated easy. Late spring and early fall are the most comfortable times to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Stamford, Connecticut, show May highs around 72°F and September highs around 76°F, with July the warmest month at about 85°F. That station sits roughly 500 feet lower than the trail, so temperatures on the trail run a little cooler. The hike takes about half an hour. Green Trail is 0.9 miles away and Old Church Lane Preserve Trail is 1.1 miles away. Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, a climbing area, is about 4.1 miles off, and the Norwalk River, a paddling route, is about 4.5 miles away.
