Yes. Can you and your bike handle light gravel/packed dirt? At Lithgow on US 44 make a right onto Deep Hollow and descend to NY 343/82, where you make a left. The start of the trail is at the train station just up the road. The times I’ve ridden 343/82 from the end of the trail to Deep Hollow have been relatively busy, but there is enough of a shoulder. Just be prepared for trucks speeding by. Deep Hollow is really nice and pretty much traffic free, but the return trip requires climbing.

The best part of that trail is from Millerton to Copake. Rode it last year during a tour from northern Vermont home to Philly after camping at Taconic State Park. There is a store/cafe along the trail right across from the park entrance. A couple I know rode that section the day before I did and had to stop and wait for this bugger to move along.
