Heritage Trail (aka Orange Heritage Trail)

Worth a Visit

July, 2018 by lughnerson

Dateline: Sunday July 08, 2018.
Weather: Sunny, clear, temps in the 80's, low humidity.

It has been on my list for a long time, because it's a good distance (25 miles according to my Strava) and it's only an hour drive from me. I am glad I can cross it off my list. Not in my top 5, but I many trails, so it has stiff competition. The trail itself is in pretty good shape, and no trail is perfect. The scenery to me would rate average at best, but again it has very stiff competition from the places I have visited. I definitely suggest a visit so you can decide for yourself.

Caution. After visiting many bike trails thanks to TrailLink, my only complaint is that some of the parking areas need to be reviewed more carefully. In this case I kept driving past the northern most parking area listed in Goshen and went to one midway in Monroe just off Route 17. It is a Park & Ride, very nicely paved, well lit, safe and right next to the trail.

Always take the address/directions/GPS to more than one parking lot and visit the TLink site just before departing for any updates. I drove 2.5 hours to Windsor Locks, CT to find out the entire trail was closed temporarly, and my only parking lot address closed for the entire year. But I will go back, because the trails themselves have not let me down.

Jones Point Path

Agreed - completely overgrown / poorly maintained

July, 2018 by cyclehaven9w

Took this as an alternative to the narrow shoulder section of 9W and much like another post from last year, it's still completely overgrown - I was able to pass on 25mm tires, but it definitely wasn't easy. A ton of small rocks underneath the greenery, a fallen tree, some wet sand, etc...

The trail really has potential if it were properly maintained.

Hook Mountain/Nyack Beach Bikeway

Possibly the most scenic trail in the Tristate area!

July, 2018 by leonardo.gr

Pictures don’t do it justice. Get your mountain bike or cross country bike ready and hit this trail! First section of the trail is a bit busy with pedestrians, but it becomes nice and clear once you start entering the woods further north.

Pequest Wildlife Management Area Trail

A wonderful hiking trail

June, 2018 by mikebrennan_us

This is an amazing area rich in history and scenery. There is parking at either end and two points in between . This trail also connects to the Warren railroad and Pequest furnace. The L&HR trail still has many artifacts from it's railroad days. Other than the initial descent at the intersection of 31 and 46 the trail is very flat and easy to walk. Just an amazing place.

Heritage Trail (aka Orange Heritage Trail)

Orange Heritage Trail

June, 2018 by wayne7532

Yes trail is paved and is great to ride smooth pavement. Was wondering why there are no entrance signs to trail. Was at Monroe, Airport Park, and there are NO MARKINGS as to where one is to enter trail. Noted small goat paths from parking lot to trail. Also was wondering why when heading South that there is no notice that trail dead ends with a chain link fence. Wonder how many law suits from hitting fence or rider dumping their bikes. Good thing that I was not goin down that hill at a fast pace, 20 plus mph. Also this trail is no way a 1. The North and South directions from Monroe are hills that are 5 degrees or more and each are 2.5 miles or longer. This would be a work out for any beginner. Just a note that I was riding a Catrike Expedition. I have about 3k miles riding trikes. Would have been nice if there was a entrance that a trike would be able to enter Trail.

Bethpage Bikeway trail

June, 2018 by lcdelong

Loved it!

Well kept, well marked bike path. Moderately traveled. All dogs I saw were on leashes. Cyclists, walkers, and runners were all very respectful of each other when passing.

I started in Bethpage State Park and went north towards Syosset. The terrain was mostly flat with a hill about 1 mile from the start (mile markers are on the pavement). It started out as mostly tree-lined and covered, but trees thinned out farther out. The path does cross major roadways, but these crossings are well marked.
