Highlight • Cafe

Cute town full of cyclists during the weekend. Check out the coffee spot 'Boxer' for amazing donuts and coffee.

Hudson River Waterfront Trail at Nyack Beach State Park

Highlight • Trail

Roughly a mile and a half of (mostly) empty handpicked gravel. Totally doable on a road bike. If you take the turn up to Rockland Lake beware the 12% gradient up from the river. If you continue on to Haverstraw it's another 3.5 miles of gravel and dirt (a bit more of a challenge on a road bike but still manageable as long as you aren't trying to set any speed records). A really nice reprieve from the more commonly traveled ride on 9w!

Climb from Nyack Beach to Rockland Lake

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Conditions are a bit rough, and it's a steep climb, but totally doable

Tip by

24.2 km

Rockland Lake South

Highlight • Lake

This 256-acre lake might seem pretty shrimpy alongside the mighty Hudson River to the east, but the lake has a nice road-ride loop all the way around it, and a small jetty leading into the water.

24.7 km

Steep Incline Toward Rockland Lake

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Moderate climb on both sides. Scenic views of the Hudson on the southern part.

Tip by

27.0 km

Old Mountain Road North

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Good climb as it's nice and steep. Watch out when descending as there is a crossing in the middle of the segment.
