Great loop near Croton-on-Hudson and Ossining through Teatown

Posted on by Greg Cohen under Routes


This is a great loop. There’s good parking at the water treatment plant in Ossining which puts you right on the aqueduct. A quick right hand turn, one killer hill, then through Teatown, more killer rolling hills, then the Croton dam, then a final three miles on the aqueduct back to the car.

You can even stop in Teatown and use the bathroom, get water, and buy gifts at the gift shop.  OK, maybe no gifts.

But all in all, a great loop to be sure.

I had a couple of good runs, yesterday with a buddy, so… Read more »

    Well, my job in Miami was just fine — no major stress, good people.  Couldn’t fit in a speed workout, and wound up doing the same out and back three times.  Normally that would be unremarkable, but this was a great out and back.  Pancake flat, starting on a boardwalk, then sidewalk (ok so it’s… Read more »

  • Loop from Marriott Desert Ridge Villas / JW Marriott / Phoenix

    Very happy, but wish it was a little longer, and that the first mile was a little quieter, but for what is obviously a heavily populated area it’s a good loop. Run from Marriott Canyon Villas / JW MarriottFind more Runs in Phoenix, Arizona
