Overview
The Mamakating Rail Trail is part of the Sullivan O&W Trail, which runs for 20.65 miles in Sullivan County in 7 distinct sections along the previous O&W Railroad Main Line and Port Jervis Branch.
About the Route
The Mamakating section of the Sullivan O&W Rail Trail leaves off from the old O&W Main Line and follows the old Port Jervis O&W branch instead.
Here the old O&W line and the old D&H Canal Path converge and run nearly side by side. The Mamakating Rail Trail runs between Ferguson Rd. and Summitville Rd., with a portion in the middle between Mcdonald Rd. and a dead end near the Wurtsboro Airport that is owned by the NY DEC that is composed of a rougher gravel surface.
Connections
The Mamakating Rail Trail runs parallel to the D&H Canal Linear Park.
The Mamakating Rail Trail runs between Ferguson St. (Sullivan) and Sullivan St. (Wurtsboro), with parking available on both ends.
