Saddle River County Park Bike Path

Saddle river park

July, 2026 by kaiser

Very scenic good ride , if your biking I would recommend ride early otherwise you encounter many walkers , strollers etc which can be a hazard if you are biking and cone around a corner the a surprise.

North County Trailway

Now renamed to the Andrew O'Rourke Westchester County Trailway

July, 2026 by joann.brereton

Wonderful trail. Part of the larger Empire State Trailway. This part from Eastview to Baldwin Place is the section I ride the most. Mostly shaded once you're north of Millwood with plenty of spots where you can stop for a bite or veer off for road riding near the reservoirs.

Maybrook Trailway

WARNING !!!!! - TREES DOWN EVERYWHERE For 3 Mile Stretch

July, 2026 by sisophous

The trail is not accessible for a 3-mile stretch. From Green Haven and then Eastbound is impossible to pass. Trees have fallen down virtually every 50 yards blocking passage. I carried my bike past about 6 trees and each time I saw another tree blocking the trail. I came across a clean up crew that told me the downed trees went all the way to Green Haven. I was 3 miles east of Green Haven when the mess started. There is also debris along the entire section which I was fortunate not to get a flat tire. The cleaning crew told me they have only 4 people and they will try to hire a contractor to clear the trees. There is no way a crew of 4 people could handle this. It would take them months to clean it up. (July 10, 2026)

Maybrook Trailway

Brewster Trailway Bridge and CT State Line and more

July, 2026 by normrtt

The Trailways Bridge over the river in Brewster is open, eliminating the on-road detour. The eastern end is currently at the NY/CT line at Farrington Woods (with trail parking) in CT. Long range plans are to develop the CT portion of the RR path to Danbury.
There are far more legit parking areas than currently shown on TrailLink. Services are few and some might seem close lack easy access from route to road. High point is Whaley Lake. The trail is in good condition for it's entire length.

Farmington Canal Heritage Trail

Rode Simsbury down to Plainville. Simsbury to Avon was full of tree root bumps, and lots of branches & trail debris. It's almost as if Simsbury wants to keep cyclists out. ¿ However, Avon and Farmington were great rides, as was Plainville.

Farmington Canal Heritage Trail

Terrible Shape

May, 2026 by dave36

Rode from Avon, CT to Westfield, MA. Mass section in great shape. CT section is awful. Pavement is split, constant 'ka-thunk', pot holes not marked, just horrendous condition. Where is the CT DOT and our tax dollars? Stay away.

Bethpage Bikeway

Bethpage to Jones Beach

May, 2026 by mx546x87dm

I did this route many times. About a half mile West from the South End of the Bethpage Bike Path ie,. Merrick Road NY 27A, you’ll see the Wantaugh Parkway entrance to the Jones Beach path. way back when they couple

Charter Oak Greenway

OK, but several issues

April, 2026 by m.p.schneider.lc

This trail was OK. The part along the river and in downtown was scenic and it was paved all the way.

However, it goes along the highway for a while with just a chain link fence as separation, which is not enjoyable at all (east of the gap is not scenic). It also has a lot of tree roots creating speed bumps. Finally, the gap between the river and the rest is significant (& don't take what looks like the most direct route as Pratt & Whittney has a security gate for part, so you can't get through unless employed there).

Hudson River Greenway

A great ride over the GWB to Hudson

April, 2026 by kaiser

Started in FortLee Nj , biked over the GWB took a few roads to get to the Hudson greenway . The venture was very picturesque throughout the entire ride , many things to see & do . We ended up going to Chelsea and 505 W 23 rd st to a very nice place to grab a bite & water at the Wildflower . I will do again .

North Shore Rail Trail

Not plowed

February, 2026 by polecatwillie

Why has this trail not been plowed?? It has been snowed over since December.

North County Trailway

Smooth riding, lovely view- part 2

November, 2025 by kleistikow

The ‘protected bike lane’ is more like a highway breakdown lane, but separated by a guardrail. Again, not pretty, but it is a safe and efficient way to get from Point A to Point B.
