October 4, Sylvan Glen / Granite Knolls

click for map page

This Sunday, October 4, at 8:00 a.m., the reservation will be hosting its annual Hunter Pace equestrian event so we’ll meet at a new location for the group—Sylvan Glen near Yorktown. This is a former quarry that provided the stone for the ramps to the George Washington and Whitestone bridges and there are remnants throughout the park as a result. We’ll follow a course that will cross one road and continue into Granite Knolls, an adjacent park where we’ll find the giant boulder—you’ll know it when you see it. If you want to continue your run, you can follow the perimeter of Granite Knolls and cross a bridge over the Taconic State Parkway into Woodlands Legacy Fields Park and add an extra 2.5 miles of the perimeter loop there. Those that want to start early can arrive at 7:00 a.m.

Park at the lot across from 2857 Grant Avenue, Mohegan Lake, NY, on the western entrance to the park and see the map page here ››

Hope to see you out there this weekend and don’t forget to register for the upcoming fall races:
