Setauket-Port Jefferson Station Greenway Trail

Great path but the abandoned warehouse is gone so seeing old building aspect gone, and they are not maintaining with the roots pushing up the road

Laurelton Greenway

It should be used mostly for walking back and forth. Really good for the kids or folk just learning to ride their bicycle. I used it to practice clipping in and out of my pedals. It's also really neat and clean. Also a lil park as well.

Bethpage Bikeway

Great ride

August, 2024 by f9rys6884g

Biked the entire run, from Woodbury to Massapequa. Completely paved path the entire way. Only half-dozen “small bumps” along the entire way due to tree roots, but seriously, nothing to complain about.

Maybrook Trailway

weeds weeds weeds!!!

August, 2024 by johnjr4

This is a great trail that is now suffering from neglect . The weeds are so overgrown that the trail is almost down to a single lane.

North Shore Rail Trail

great trail

August, 2024 by gatogo4

Easy riding trail. Lots of crossings There are no center posts on some of the crossings making the crossings much easier to navigate. Hope the rest of the center posts could be removed

Mattabassett Trolley Trail

What's the point....

August, 2024 by jbarrett01

......of having a trail where there is nowhere to park???

Maybrook Trailway

5 Star

July, 2024 by z4g9gshqpr

The smoothest trail you will find anywhere around NYC. Nice and long, mostly flat. As others have pointed out, plants are beginning to overgrow on the Dutchess County end and need to be cut back. But the trail goes by numerous lakes and offers fantastic views. Highly recommend. Just make sure to start early because the trail is quite long.

Maybrook Trailway

Maybrook to Brewster

July, 2024 by bktourer1

Excellent trail except for the staircase once you get into Brewster from the Danbury area. Why wasn't a ramp put in instead of 2 steep staircases to carry a bike up or down?

Maybrook Trailway

Incredible Trail -- Almost impassable in Dutchess County Right Now

July, 2024 by dryaun

The Dutchess County portion of this incredible biking trail is almost unusable right now. Weeds wildly overgrown and sticking out 4-5 feet into the trail on either side. The Dutchess County people responsible for this negligence should be ashamed of themselves.

Norwalk River Valley Trail

Two Trails

July, 2024 by z4g9gshqpr

These are really 2 separate trails with a variety of surfaces and a bit of street riding. The Norwalk trail is mostly asphalt going north from the sound while the trail in Wilton has about half going through a wooded area with pea gravel. This is the most enjoyable spot to ride as the other half of the Wilton trail dies out north of town on Route 7 with nothing around. If they were ever able to connect the two routes you would have something.

Maybrook Trailway

beautiful trail with an ownership dispute

July, 2024 by vbergerg_tl

Beautiful needed trail, extending the Dutchess Trail down to Brewster. Pity there seems to be some big ownership/maintenance dispute going on I guess between Dutchess County and NYS? Because right now no one is cutting back the weeds on the Dutchess County side and there’s a big defensively toned sign up saying that Dutchess County is not responsible.
