Walkable Westchester

All homes in Westchester are within one mile of a park boundary or place to walk and spring is the perfect season for hiking. Jane and Walt Daniels, co-authors of Walkable Westchester: A Walking Guide to Westchester County, and Scarsdale resident Gloria Lewit encourage people of all ages to take advantage of one of Westchester’s great attractions. They will talk and answer questions about the how, when, and where for walking and answer questions at the Scarsdale Public Library on March 30th at 7:30 pm.

Walkable Westchester promotes walking, which is an inexpensive recreation and part of a healthy lifestyle. It is an incredibly comprehensive and unique resource guide for finding places in Westchester to walk, hike, and visit that covers about 180 parks and 600 miles of trails. The book describes a wide variety of walking opportunities on paved paths, woods roads, dirt roads, or narrow woodland trails in urban, suburban, rural, and natural settings. The book will be available for sale at the event, and all proceeds will go entirely to the NY/NJ Trail Conference to maintain and expand trails.

The presentation will take about an hour, and there will be time for questions and book signing. For more information about the book and the authors, click here. For more information on the event at the Library, call 914-722-1300.
