Hudson Greenway

In 1991, the Hudson River Valley Greenway was created in part to establish a network of multi­use trails along both sides of the Hudson River. Today the Greenway is working to create a system of trails from the northern borders Saratoga and Washington counties to Manhattan. The Hudson River Greenway Trail System consists of two main components: a land trail and a water trail for paddling and boating. A major route included in the land trail is Bike Route 9, a north­south on­road bicycling trail.
