White Trail is a 0.67-mile point-to-point hike in New York, set within the Bozen Kill land unit, which is managed by a non-governmental organization. The trail rises from about 480 feet to about 495 feet, with the steepest stretch at roughly 0.49 miles in, where the grade reaches about 11 percent. It is a moderate route, and the climb is short enough to fit easily into a longer outing on the surrounding network of trails. Late spring and early fall are the most comfortable times to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station at Delanson show May highs around 70°F and September highs around 74°F, while July peaks near 81°F and January highs sit around 31°F. That station sits about 490 feet lower than the trail, so temperatures on the trail run cooler. The Red Trail lies just 0.1 mile away, and the Orange Trail is about 1.7 miles off. Climbers can find Cave Wall about 4.1 miles away and the Mahican Section about 4.2 miles away.
