   If you're fascinated by history or mining, bring your dog for a stroll at Granite Knolls Park. This is a hidden park that has a variety of trails and terrain for you and Fido to sniff out. Along the trails, you'll see various quarry pits, some old gear, and even cable. You will have to keep your dog on a leash on this trail. Bring plenty of water with you. Getting here is a little tricky; the park doesn't have its own entrance. You will have to start from Woodlands Legacy Field Park and take the Taconic Bridge Trail to find it. It's about a mile walk to get here.

   The Rails-to-Trails Conservancy has taken New York by storm, and the North County Trailway addition is absolutely barktastic! This network of trails spans over 22 miles that follow along the former railroad route. The trails will take you through the gorgeous countryside of Westchester County. Just don't forget to bring a leash and lots of drinking water and waste bags. Remember, this trail is shared with cyclists, inline skaters, and horses, so make sure Spot doesn't mind sharing his space when you visit! Cross-country skiing is even available on this trail in the winter months. You can access this trail from Old Saw Mill River Road in Tarrytown, NY.

   Teatown Lake Reservation is a privately owned reservation that is open to the public daily from dawn till dusk. The reservation offers guided hikes and tours, or you can come and walk the trails on your own. You'll need to follow the rules, though. You must always have your dog on a leash, and you're not allowed to stray off the trails or pick the flowers. You also have to clean up after your dog. You can check in with your pup at the front desk and get a complete map of all the trails available throughout the park's 730 acres. There are fourteen miles of trails, so you and Fido will be good and tired when you leave!

   Sylvan Glen Nature Preserve is another wonderful spot for history lovers. It houses a former quarry amongst its nature trails. Your pup will need to be leashed to explore the trails with you, but if you're looking for an off-leash adventure, then visit Sylvan Glen Paw Park. This dog park is about an acre and features separate areas for large and small dogs. Drinking water isn't provided here, so be sure to bring your own. Waste baggies are supplied by the park. There are always fur friends here to meet and play with! Make sure you clean up after your pup, especially when outside the dog park, to protect the animals that live here.
