Putnam County Trailway - cycling

The 1.9 miles roll continuously through 3 distinct climbs, adding up to 180 ft of gain without one dominant ascent. The main climb starts around mile 0.55 and runs 0.12 miles, gaining 76 ft at an average 12%. You finish 39 ft below the start, so an out-and-back saves the climbing for the return.

The Putnam County Trailway is a paved 12-mile (19 km) bicycle and pedestrian trail in Putnam County, New York. With few exceptions, it follows the former right-of-way of the New York and Putnam Railroad from the northern end of the North County Trailway at the Putnam County line in Baldwin Place north, then east, to Carmel. In 2011 the trail was extended east to Brewster. In late summer 2018, a final section bypassing portions of Putnam Ave in Brewster, which was formerly closed off with construction barriers and signs, has been opened. The Brewster station of the Metro-North Railroad is a short distance away.
