This route is best ridden in a clockwise direction, leaving New Paltz on Route 299 and making the first left on Libertyville Road. A longer variation of the Clove Road Loop, this ride adds 10 miles and an additional 800 feet of climbing. The highest elevation (1,400 feet +/-) comes just after passing the entrance to Minnewaska State Park.

Look for the swimming hole just before Alligerville about halfway through the ride.
