Mountain Lakes is a climbing area on Westchester County land in New York, managed by the county. It sits on county property, and the surrounding area is a mix of hiking trails and other climbing spots. Late spring through early fall is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Danbury, Connecticut, show September highs around 74°F with lows near 52°F, while July highs reach about 82°F. That station sits a few hundred feet lower than the area, so temperatures here may run slightly cooler. The Yellow Trail, Blue Trail and Orange Trail all lie about 0.4 miles away. Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, a climbing area, is about 5.7 miles off.
