We had a beautiful day riding this trail! There were a lot of people, however, that's to be expected on a wonderful Sunday afternoon. The only downside was that we were stopped and given a warning, with my name taken and entered into the officers computer, by a County Sherif officer that e-bikes are prohibited in all Bergen County parks. Unfortunately we won't be back to this trail again.
Truly loved this trail we went on a Sunday September, we had our electric bikes it was so much fun. Coming back for sure!
It should be used mostly for walking back and forth. Really good for the kids or folk just learning to ride their bicycle. I used it to practice clipping in and out of my pedals. It's also really neat and clean. Also a lil park as well.
Super calm,people are kind, and a great way to relax!!
Biked the entire run, from Woodbury to Massapequa. Completely paved path the entire way. Only half-dozen “small bumps” along the entire way due to tree roots, but seriously, nothing to complain about.
This is a great trail that is now suffering from neglect . The weeds are so overgrown that the trail is almost down to a single lane.
Easy riding trail. Lots of crossings There are no center posts on some of the crossings making the crossings much easier to navigate. Hope the rest of the center posts could be removed
On Monday, 05 August 2024, I rode my road bike from Keyport to Leonardo along what I believed would be one of New Jersey's premier paved paths. It's obvious it was once a wonderful path, but that was years ago. The path is disappointingly neglected and is no fun at all to ride on: the asphalt pavement is epidemically root-riven. Some places need to be resurfaced and the wide crevices filled in. I would go so far as to say that the path needs to be rebuilt! It's a shame, too, because the path traverses lovely woods that offer shade from a blazing summer sun.
That same day I had ridden the bay-side section of the Henry Hudson Trail. That part runs right beside the bay and is constructed of finely crushed stone. It's beautiful and is a joy to ride on, even on a road bike!
It's easy to get from the bay-side of the HHT to the bike path that threads up through Sandy Hook to Fort Hancock -- and that route is nothing short of magnificent!
But, from Keyport to Leonardo -- just skip it.
Wife and I had a nice ride through the trail. Will definitely be back. Nice area and plenty of benches along the way to sit and relax.
The smoothest trail you will find anywhere around NYC. Nice and long, mostly flat. As others have pointed out, plants are beginning to overgrow on the Dutchess County end and need to be cut back. But the trail goes by numerous lakes and offers fantastic views. Highly recommend. Just make sure to start early because the trail is quite long.
Excellent trail except for the staircase once you get into Brewster from the Danbury area. Why wasn't a ramp put in instead of 2 steep staircases to carry a bike up or down?
