This is a rough trail to ride on in some places. From mountiandale to woodridge was somewhat easy and on a compact dirt and grass. The secenery was fair, passing over a small lake and some wooded places. The grade was low and easy pedeling. Once in woodridge, there is a small ride on the road that takes you to another trail head that leads up to the Neversink river. On this trail you need to stay to your right when the rail splits about 1/2 mile off the paved road. If you go to the left it will lead you to the bottom of the old Davos ski area. A different look but nothing much to see. Back on the trail it can get a little hairy with some patches of sand that can be a few inches deep. We had hybrid bikes that could get boged down easly. Once we got to the neversink river we decieded to ride the paved road back to the town of woodridge. On Saturdays, many if not all the stores are closed due to the high population of jewish people. So if your looking for some place to stop and eat, saturday might not be a good day to ride. I hope that one day they continue the trail over the river and into south fallsburg. I would not go out of my way to ride this trail. Ride a trail, write a review.

I believe this trail is only two miles long. I finished the ride down from Woodridge in 15 minutes. The ride back was longer because it's noticeably uphill. It's a nice trail but I wouldn't travel very far to do it. It's too short.

"This is a great trail that runs along side what used to be Silver Lake. Unfortunately Silver Lake's dam broke a few years back and it hasn't been repaired. The people that visit this trail fish in the surrounding ponds and streams. The only problem is that these people litter all over the place, despite the presence of garbage cans placed along the trail. Another problem is the maintenance of the trail in that area. Beavers dam culvert pipes that run under the trail and water overflows the trail making it a mud mess.
But all isn't negative. People regularly walk their dogs and many others enjoy walks at sunset. I really want to help keep this trail in good shape; after all I live between Mountaindale and Woodridge by the edge of this natural beauty."
