Katonah to Croton Point Park
There are two options here. The first is easy, mostly flat, and downhill; however, the return trip is uphill for about 5 miles as you leave the park. Round-trip is approximately 30 miles. The second route (scroll down to get to it) has some challenging hills thrown in and is about 50 miles round-trip.
