Croton RiverWalk

Croton RiverWalk is a short mountain biking ride of about half a mile, with just over 47 feet of elevation gain and loss over the full out-and-back route. The trail starts at about 16 feet and reaches a high point of 19 feet, so it's an easy ride that stays low to the ground. It sits about a quarter mile from the village of Harmon, New York. Late spring and early fall tend to be the most comfortable times to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station run from highs around 70°F in May to 74°F in September, with July the warmest month at about 83°F. That station sits roughly 650 feet lower than the trail, so temperatures on the ride run somewhat cooler. The Croton Trails System is about 0.8 miles away, and the Croton River offers canoeing about a mile off. For hiking, the Upper Highland Trail and Croton Gorge Trail are both within about a mile.
