Westchester Parks & Trails
Westchester is among the most park-dense counties in the Northeast — Rockefeller State Park Preserve, Old Croton Aqueduct trail, Croton Point, and the Bronx River Parkway trail. For adults 21+ who hike or walk on weekends, the county has range. This pillar covers trail recommendations by fitness level, how Westchester's park system fits a weekend template, and the law that applies on every trail: New York state law prohibits cannabis consumption on state-owned land and in public spaces.
