Yellow Trail is an easy 3.1-mile loop on county land in New York, set within the County of West - Park Land. The route gains about 190 feet in elevation, and the climb is gentle enough that it works well as a short outing or a way to pair with other trails in the area. The trail's shape is a loop, and the highest point is 449 feet, with the low point at 213 feet. The steepest stretch comes early on, around the 0.6-mile mark, where the grade reaches 26 percent. Bikes and horses are not allowed. Late spring and early fall are the most comfortable times to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station run from highs around 70°F in May to about 74°F in September, while winter highs stay in the 30s. White Trail starts just 0.1 mile away, and Green Trail is about 0.6 mile off. Tea Town Boulders, a climbing area, is roughly 6 miles away, and the Croton River offers paddling about 8.5 miles out.
