Path is very well maintained, except for the connector to Prospect Park is a bit worn (you can use the adjacent street). A great stress free route to Coney Island.
I have wanted to come to Sandy Hook for several years, and I am thrilled that I finally did. It’s a lovely ride that includes shore front and leafy glades. Definitely my new favorite ride!
I just rode the trail from Cheshire to New Haven Harbor. It gets confusing because of the lack of signage once you go under the Temple St Garage in New Haven. You get dumped out into a street and don't know where to go. The trail is on the road or sidewalk depending on what you prefer. Take a left onto Grove St. continue to the end and take a right onto Olive ST. Follow Olive St. to the end and pick up the trail again on Water St. Cross Brewery ST and take a right to continue on Brewery. Brewery changes to Sargent Drive. Take a left to go under I95 and the water will be in front of you. If you take a right and continue down for a little, along the water's edge, you will find dozens of food trucks to buy lunch before a return trip. It was well worth the trip.
This morning May 25, 25 we saw a doe and larger buck between east of Old Town Road.
Overgrown and hard to follow We gave up even with mountain bikes when starting from Palmer Park. We are going to try another trail nearby
Really doesn’t qualify as a trail, just a pocket park, it’s way too small but it is a very pretty surprise off the Okd Croton Aquaduct Trail
The section on the Upper West Side starting from 125th St going south is still closed for construction but will hopefully open soon albeit late. Also the section from 181st Street running to Dyckman St is also closed with zero announcements re what’s going on; could be a serious problem with sinkholes and the retaining wall. The good news is that we finally have a full size bike lane across the Henry Hudson Bridge. The bad news is that you still have to portage your bike up a 2 story railroad bridge into the Dyckman Park section of Inwood Hill Park. And in Riverdale it is on street from the bridge to Van Cortlandt park. Park
Entered @ Elmsford and found a parking lot where we unloaded . Well maintained nice scenery along the way as well as a few eateries and gas stations where you can get a drink or snack .
The finished portion in Pequannock is a great place to walk. Road crossings are clearly marked and the entire length is flat and paved. Look for colorful plants along the way and even an original cement marker from the railroad days.
Artie Pescov and I were the initiators of this bike path when I was 17 years old ( I am 70 yo now) and he was 16 yo. I lived on Pine street backing Cedar Creek Park ( old timers would know our property because we had a chicken farm and the hens would cross Merrick Rd. The diner is now there where my grandparents house stood). It was his idea and I had a license. So we travelled around getting signatures to have this bikeway built. We then visited congressman Mr. Murphy ( I think that was his name) of Seaford and he loved the idea. Well, it went through and Artie and I never heard another word about it. Other people (adults not teens like us) took credit for it. However, I am glad that this bikeway still exists! I have long left Long Island but still good memories.
