Start point Copake Falls along
Route 22 in eastern Dutchess county (or Under Mountain Road at its south
end). Food in Copake Falls. This
route includes a short section on a
public road, but this normally has very little traffic. It also intersects with
driveways and possibly public roads at several other points -- so special care is
required in detecting, approaching, and crossing those.
Start points Amenia or Millerton along
Route 22 in eastern Dutchess county. The rail trail goes slightly
uphill in the north-bound direction from Amenia toward Millerton, so if you
want it easier on your return trip, start in Amenia. Note that although
the trail itself is off-road, it intersects with public roads at several
points, at least one with high-speed vehicle traffic -- so special care is
required in detecting, approaching, and crossing those.
