Turkey Mountain Trail is a 2.1 mile heavily trafficked loop trail located near Yorktown Heights, New York that features beautiful wild flowers and is rated as moderate. The trail is primarily used for hiking and nature trips.
Note: This route has been updated as of October 2020 to reflect a trail reroute. Good trail for a family hike. Short enough so that the kids won't complain, but challenging enough that they will feel that they have accomplished something when they reach the summit. Good view from the peak.

February 8, 2021Great short hike in the snow. (Snow shoes would have made it a little easier.) First 20 mins up the hill got my heart going. Not another soul in sight
February 4, 2021Great view up in the summit! It’s all covered with snow so expect to do some workout
January 31, 2021January 18, 2021January 3, 2021Really great short hike. Starts off with a steep climb to the top of the mountain and a relaxed downhill back to the starting point.

December 24, 2020Two portions of Blue Trail rerouted by Parks Dept. Detours well marked and blazed. Trail conditions today muddy and slushy, as expected.
December 15, 2020A bit wet and muddy today because of the melting snow, but still my favorite hike!
