Green Trail

Green Trail is a short, easy hike in Sluder Preserve, a city-managed preserve in New York. The route is 0.46 miles long, with a total elevation gain of 106 feet, and it is rated easy. It starts at about 550 feet and reaches a high point of 586 feet before descending slightly to about 467 feet. The climb is front-loaded, with the steepest stretch at the start, where the grade reaches about 16 percent. That makes the first part of the trail the most noticeable, and the rest of the route is gentle. For comfortable weather, late spring and early fall are the best bets. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show May highs around 69°F and September highs around 74°F, with July the warmest month at about 83°F. The trail sits close to other routes. Yellow Trail and Red Trail are each about 0.1 mile away. Armonk Cliffs, a climbing area, is about 2 miles off, and the Blue Trail (cliff trail) is about 2.4 miles away.
