Description:
The Ridgeway Trail skirts the banks of Willseyville Creek along the abandoned rail bed of the Delaware & Lackawanna Railroad and the former Lehigh Valley Railroad. From south Willseyville the trail heads north into Tomkins County and ends at Ridgeway Road. The level trail is used by mountain bikers and hikers, and snowmobiles are permitted in winter. Follow the white blazes since many side trails cross the Ridgeway Trail.

Parking & Trail Access:
There's parking just off the Ridgeway Road end. Look for the Finger Lakes Trail sign where the power line crosses the road (near Coddington Road). You can also park at the southern terminus in Willseyville.

off the beaten path
By ravenskaya in May, 2012
We walked half the trail today (5/20/2012), from Ridgeway to White Church and back. The trail goes through a beautiful scenic valley and passes by a sizeable swamp. It's a bit overgrown, which blocks most of the views. The view would be better in the fall, perhaps. The trail is pocked with large puddles that you have to sidestep around, but passable. Seems like it is mostly used for snowmobiling and atv riding (judging by the tracks). We saw no one else out there in the 2 hours we were there. It takes you deep into nature, and is definitely the path less traveled which makes it 4 stars for me. Bring insect repellant for the warmer months. Happy trails!
