Delaware & Hudson Rail Trail

The Delaware & Hudson Rail Trail follows a historic railway corridor through the eastern Adirondacks, though specific routing and access details vary by segment. Originally built in the 1860s to transport iron ore, the rail bed now offers relatively flat, family-friendly walking and cycling where sections have been developed for public use. Check locally for current trail conditions and access points, as segments may be maintained by different municipalities.
