From NYC · Blairstown & Swartswood

Full-day version that starts in New York City: it adds the ride there and back to Blairstown & Swartswood. Here is what you'll find on the core stretch:

A loop through the lake country of Sussex and Warren: Blairstown to Stillwater, along Swartswood Lake, and back through Johnsonburg and Hope. Narrow rural roads with rolling curves, farms and water around every few bends, and Blairstown is a classic bike stop for coffee. Good for a pack that wants a relaxed ride that still holds your attention. Watch for gravel in the corners and stretches with no shoulder.
