Sal J. Prezioso Mountain Lakes Park is Westchester’s northernmost county park and spans 1,082 acres of rugged landscape and native hardwood forest. With five lakes and a stunning overlook, the park is a premier destination for outdoor activities including hiking, camping, and fishing, and ice skating, snow-shoeing, and cross-country skiing in the winter. During summer, the park hosts Camp Morty, offering a traditional camp experience for underprivileged children in Westchester. It is also a popular spot for weddings and other events with a spacious lodge and dining hall. The park is open year-round, from dawn to dusk and leashed dogs are allowed. While a county park pass is not required, camping fees apply. Most of the trails here are for hiking, but the main road (Mountain Lakes Camp Road, which turns into a gravel road named Pine Lake Road) through the park is a popular, challenging climb through this scenic area.

Nice view of the Tarrytown Reservoir. The trail runs very close to the water, so you have a wonderful, unobstructed view across the reservoir. The path is popular with cyclists, so make sure you move to the edge if you want to stop to enjoy the great vistas.

Croton Reservoir is one of the three main water supply systems that provide water to New York City.

Beautiful lake, at the eastern end there is a kayak rental in summer. A short boat trip loosens up the cycle tour and cools you down.

Beautiful dam and waterfalls. Nice climb if coming from old quaker bridge

Great views of Croton reservoir and the red bridge itself is worth a stop. That said watch out for stopped cyclist and pedestrians if you're biking through.

The climb to the Kensico reservoir on North Kensico Avenue is quite steep. Also, there is typically a lot of traffic on the short stretch of Broadway to get to the climb, so you might want to ride on the sidewalk. There is an alternative car free path on the East side of the Valhalla dam, at the entrance to the Kensico Dam Plaza on the right side.
