I rode this trail on 10/26. It is fine crushed stone with a paved section that heads toward New Egypt. Good ride with some minor grade changes. The ride took a little over 2 hours to complete. Bathrooms and parking areas were nicely spaced on the trail.
The trail is well maintained. Mostly passable with gravel bike except a small portion around Andover. The section around Andover is also hard to navigate.
Well-maintained level scenic paved trail. Lots to see--ocean, beach, bay, various watercraft, deer, fox, birds, fauna, all sorts of military relics (missiles, cannon) and ruins (Fort Hancock), views of Manhattan skyline, and the oldest lighthouse in the USA. The direct main trail is only about 7 miles from the south parking lot but you can easily add a few riding around Fort Hancock. We rode in late October 2025. It probably gets very hot in the summer. I GUESS there's usually a fee to drive into the area (National Park) but there was no fee when we were there, perhaps because off season, perhaps because of government shut down.
My 1st time on this trail today. Gorgeous trail and autumn leaves are colorful! Worth a visit for sure!
I walk on this trail for 1 1/2 hours every day. It’s lovely, varied, not difficult at all. A former rail line, so it’s relatively even terrain. I see deer most days, and cross two bridges—over Route 23/Pompton Avenue and the small Peckman River. I park at the Cedar Grove Community Center, and walk up to the trail. Best time of my day, every single day. Really love how healing Nature here is.
I found out about this website while biking at this trail. It was also the gentleman's first time at the trail also. I was greeted by hellos and smiles along the way...The scenery is very calm and serene....
Loved every minute of this short bike around the lake. Paved (a bit of rough pavement at one point but majority was very smooth) and one good hill.
Great trail but it makes you drive with cars going 45mphom some parts
Awesome trail, I tried inline skating and I wouldn’t recommend. It’s definitely possible but not enjoyable. I feel like everything else is doable.
Interesting ride did it on a hybrid not a bad ride . Rode from Tarrytown to the end south a few places to get a bite and drink however did not see any porta John’s . Some old stone houses , walls some views of the Hudson River a must see Untermyer park & garden area .
Such beautiful bike path going next to shore through wood like settings into old army base around island. Very safe scenic and smooth ride our new favorite place to go.
