I went to Mianus for the purpose of hiking this past Saturday, after my toddler woke up from her mid day nap. It took only 22 minutes from Downtown, Stamford to get to Bedford, NY. Not bad at all for a beautiful Gorge Preserve with multiple hiking trails. We started off on the Green Trail which followed the river, beautifully hidden, still, peaceful river. We then followed the Red Trail which was spaciously wooded with autumn's left behind dead leaves. My daughter started getting fussy and hungry so we took the easier Blue Trail back. She hiked back most of the way, while holding my hand tightly as she stumbled occasionally. Indeed, a beautiful family hike during one late afternoon.
