Rode this trail as an out-and-back from the Oak Street (northwest) trailhead (limited parking, no facilities). Trail is in great condition (all paved). The south/east half of the trail is the more interesting as it includes an active freight railroad crossing (I got caught!), passing adjacent to a busy freight rail yard, and riding in a cage through a golf course!
There is a portable toilet at the Coons Crossing Road trailhead (note: as of 6/2026 construction has closed the road approaching the trailhead from the north, it is open from the south).
A great ride in the Albany area!
A great ride through boreal forest of the Canadian Shield geological formation! I did an out-and -back from Tupper Lake (the largest trailhead parking lot I’ve ever seen!) to Lake Placid. The trail is in great condition- packed crushed gravel except for a short paved section east of Saranac Lake. The trailheads all have portable toilets. There is a temporary trailhead at Lake Placid as a new one is under construction.
A good portion of the trail runs through deep forest but there are plenty of areas where the views open up, usually associated with the many ponds and lakes.
This one is a gem!
Quiet, peaceful, looking for a different perspective in life, these trails will definitely will. The Red trail leads to the science parts of the Hudson. The blue trail goes all around the large pond which is also beautiful.
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
This was an enjoyable trail a year ago with a natural grassed trail with flora and fauna along it's length. Now it is a gravel highway with trees and bushes dozed into a unsightely mess. Nothing pleasant about it anymore. I might as well ride on 590.
Sections of the trail were washed out and provided poor footing for a run. Trail is closed just north of the Whirlpool Bridges
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 .
This is a great trail for a more or less level trail run. A decent bit of asphalt but way more gravel trail. Follow the blue blazes and you’ll run parallel to the Auburn trail which is way more fun - single track through the woods. There is a fun red blazed trail as well although it eventually gets cut off by an overgrown swampy area.
Great addition to the trails in Norwich NY within walking distance of city residents. Great for pets and bikes too.
I love this trail. There's a trailhead right down the street from where I go to school up in Rochester, and it makes for a great endurance ride on a late summer or early fall day. Typically, I'll pick up the trail head and ride south down to Wadsworth Junction, where I can then pick up the Lehigh Valley trail. Generally speaking I have nothing bad to say about this trail. It's pretty well maintained, has some beautiful scenery, and a lot of cool history scattered throughout. However, a word of caution: It was the Sunday before Columbus day, I had some time to kill, and I decided I wanted to take the trail down to the Junction point in Piffard (Not the same as Pittsford). At this point in time, I hadn't gone anywhere past Wadsworth junction yet, so I was pretty much riding blind. As I got further south past Wadsworth, the terrain got significantly more sketchy. Trenches, muddy conditions, and A LOT of hedge apples. Not to mention the sheer amount of leaves that had fallen making it hard to plot a line ahead. Against all odds, I made it to my destination, and back in one piece, having only wiped out once. The moral of this story is, while the trail is awesome, do not attempt with out proper preparation. If you're like me, and you like to ride a gravel setup for versatility, be warned that standard gravel tires are probably not enough for the southern part of this trail specifically, and you might want to swap them for something more grippy (e.g. a cx tire) if you plan on going further. Great trail! Ride with caution.
Why has this trail not been plowed?? It has been snowed over since December.
