Hi,
Does anyone have a suggestion for a fairly easy (no-car) bike trail we could do this weekend in Essex, Bergen or Morris counties? We're testing out a new ride-behind trailer for the kids. I read about a trail in Bergen county, but someone said it was so crowded they had to stop riding to wait for walkers to pass. We'd like to be somewhere a little less populated. If that doesn't exist in these counties, where does one go??? Thanks!

Bergen Co. can be crowded at times requiring yielding and patience. Its a very nice park so have to be ultra attentive at all times. I still go there b/c its very nice and scenic (the one from Rochelle Park to Ridgewood w/Glen Rock loop in middle).
Recommend trails in Morristown/Madison which I think are part of Geralda Farms (as its called). Best bet IMO.
May also want to test Brookdale Park in Montclair/Bloomfield too.
A ton of people ride up 9W in bergen county up north through englewood cliffs. I'm not sure where exactly they're heading but I think it's up toward Bear Mountain in NY.
This is a VERY popular weekend trail for bikers. I will note though that there is traffic on 9W and a woman was hit by the GW bridge a few years ago.
Hello there a nice trail in cedar grove(old railroad track)off frisco ave but it more suitable for a mountain bike it crosses over two bridges and you can ride by the deserted hospital buildings.Next sunday in Montclair there a nice bike tour starting at edgemont park there is a fee but its well done and you get some nice goodies happy cycling
