Went from the Thuway area in Poughkeepsie over the walkway and ride to Hopewell junction .Nice trail well groomed , paved not much to look at but very cool what the volunteers did to the RR depot , signal house and pavilion, the depot museum was great . Went to Daddy O’s restaurant on the trail , good food . The NY empire trail continues along live tracks goes I believe quite far .
Super calm,people are kind, and a great way to relax!!
This isn’t the most scenic trail in the world, but it’s in spectacular condition, paved from end to end, busy on weekends but never overcrowded. There are a few nice stops along the trail. Beware: there is a slightly confusing part in Goshen where the trail has a short gap - the signage is not great so you might fumble around to find the next section, but it’s totally worth the trouble.
Wildly inconsistent and discontinuous trail. Has potential, but I sense it will be many, many years before this will rival the trails on the east side of the Catskills. Skip this and just go to the Heritage Trail in Middletown.
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.
Nice and wide. Plenty of room for walkers, runners and bikers alike. Hudson Valley really has a great series of trails and this is one of them. Connects the Walkway Over the Hudson to the Maybrook Trailway. Bikers dream.
This trail (14 mile section) was in pristine condition with surprising amount of wildlife (herons, deer, turtles) along the way. Park, falls and 1800's mill factory at the southern end was worth a stop. Maybe shaded 50% so suntan lotion a must. There's a parking lot in Nassau right next to the trail. As others have mentioned, very few bathroom facilities on route.
I tried this trail starting in two spots. First at the north end off 208. The first few hundred yards are good, but then it becomes overgrown. I went through the brush and mud for another few hundred yards, but turned around at a washed out culvert. Next I drove to the north end of the southern section off S road. This was better. Bumpy with roots across the trail. Foot tall grass in most places, but passable for a half mile or so. After the underpass there are several bridges in degrading condition. I didn't dare ride across, but walked these. There were also downed trees in two spots. A little over a mile in I turned around at another rotting bridge that had 3 large snakes (I believe Northern Water Snakes, but not 100% sure).
I wouldn't waste your time with trying this trail.
Great trail did from Harriman to Middletown plenty of opportunities to get food & water . I recommend Mason’s Place in New Hampton right on the trail breakfast lunch , dinner & bar . Very cool 1866 place , lots of history , good food . The owner Brett was very accommodating and offered to stay late for us .
Rode from Harriman ti right before downtown Chester. The trail is closed for maintenance at about the 7 mile marker.
This mostly flat, well maintained trail goes though woods and across dykes. The scenery makes this a near perfect trail.
