The Empire State Trail is an off-road bike path for its first 100 miles north of New York City, making it an ideal day trip for anyone from the New York Metro Area. The trail was entirely constructed along former railroad lines that once carried passengers and freight throughout the Hudson Valley. Now it’s an amazingly scenic bike path that is relatively flat and takes you past beautiful lakes and farms, over breathtaking bridges and through quaint towns bursting with history.

Experience the trail at your own pace with the convenience and peace of mind of an organized tour Our Empire Trail Service is designed for riders of all abilities to enjoy a day out on a 40-mile section of this scenic, remote, car-free bike path at your own pace while still having the convenience, support, safety and peace of mind that comes with an organized tour. Ride by yourself or with one of our guides and have access to break stops with refreshments. A support vehicle is available throughout the day where you can store your belongings while you ride. You can pack your own lunch or order a lunch ($17) and everything is available to you at the break stops. In addition, our staff is always available in the general area to help you with any mechanical breakdowns or to pick you up in the support vehicle if you cannot finish the ride.
