Turkey Mountain Nature Preserve
Turkey Mountain was preserved through the efforts of concerned citizens who recognized its value, and its preservation and maintenance are a continuing concern of the Yorktown Land Trust. The 125 acre preserve, owned by the Town of Yorktown, offers summit views at 831 feet to the Croton Reservoir and dam; the Hudson River; the New York City skyline to the south; Bear Mountain, across the Hudson; the Hudson Highlands; and on a clear day, the ridge of the Shawangunks.
Location: Off the west side of Route 118, approximately 2 mile south of the intersection of Routes 202, 35, and 118, and one mile north of the intersection of Route 129 and 118, opposite of Croton Heights Road.
