New Maps and Books on the Way

For nearly 50 years, the Trail Conference has been leading the charge in making sure up-to-date trail maps are available in the region.

Several titles, including one new and several revised maps, are expected to be available in the coming months. In addition, our volunteers are excitedly working on guidebooks that may be available by early 2020.

Westchester Trails Map Set

This brand new map set will feature more than 160 miles of trails in New York’s Westchester County. We are in the final stages of production, so keep your eyes open a release date! The set includes three maps: Rockefeller State Park Preserve (the largest state park in Westchester County), Ward Pound Ridge Reservation (the largest Westchester County Park), and Teatown Lake Reservation (the largest privately owned preserve in the county). See the map above covering Rockefeller State Park Preserve, Old Croton Aqueduct, North County Trailway, and more.
