Decent walk and view. As of October 2026 bathrooms are not open ever.
Rode Pawley Trailhead to Hopewell Junction and back. Perfect, smooth, clear, pavement. No downed trees . Few easy road crossings, shady throughout. Nice lunch at Daddy Os in Hopewell Junction.
Rode entire trail roundtrip on a sunny August day. It's a great trail with a great paved surface. Scenic, too. The southern trailhead (Wassaic) has a direct train connection to New York City, so it's just a matter of time before it's discovered by folks from the city for a day's ride.
Town of Millerton in center of trail had the best facilities for a mid-ride break. Copake Iron Works Museum at Taconic State Park and close to the trail also well worth a visit.
The trail is primarily shaded with a few places that are not. You are mostly surrounded by trees, with only a couple of bridges or water views. It’s nicely maintained packed gravel. Keep a watch for the signs that tell you where the poison ivy is.
Cute park area, playground for kids, pavilion, picnic tables, grills. Boat launch and museum, although the museum had a sign that it is no longer open. I parked at the visitor center and biked the Heritage Trail. Easy, gravel, a couple of ponds along the way. Ends at 209.
Flat, paved rail trail. Dead ends at almost one mile. Located right in Port Jervis town.
Hubby & I went this morning for a trial run with my new e-bike! It was tons of fun!!!!
Beautiful views, well kept and wide trail. Olive to Boiceville has best views. "Road Bikes" are named to be on the road.
Mostly cinder. Started from access lot off of RT 7. Shared RT Trail with the Town Of new Milford. Parallels an active track. Good variety of terrain and scenery..
We are casual cyclists (no ebikes) and decided to take a short ride on this trail. We parked at the Nassau Lake Trailhead which has about 13 parking spots. We headed towards East Greenbush and cycled about 8 miles before turning around. The 8 mile section of the trail we cycled was paved and very well maintained. There was a slight elevation gain in this section but made for a nice downhill on the way back. There were no amenities on the 8 mile route. The trail had a couple of easy street crossings but was mostly off-road.
On the way back, we continued pass the TH parking for about 3 miles to the Village of Nassau to have a look. There is another TH in town next to a small park and across the street from an ice cream shop. This section of the trail in the village was flat. If we had the time, we would have gone further.
I would recommend this trail.
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.
