General Description:

Eastport Conservation Area is a 316 acre property of the NY State DEC. It features an 8.5 mile mountain bike trail through classic Long Island Central Pine Barrens oak-pine woods habitat and open fields. Seasonal hiking and hunting are also available here.

The Trails:

This one way, groomed singletrack trail loops through both wooded areas and open fields. The 8.5 miles of winding singletrack trail are mostly flat and best for the beginner to intermediate rider. While you won't be coming here especially for the scenery, the few short climbs, drops and twisty trails makes a good after work ride for locals. Also, it is less used than Rocky Point so you just might have the trail to yourself. Approved bicycle helmets and eye protection are required.

A seasonal access permit is required for all activities on NYSDEC lands on Long Island. The permit is free and valid for 3 years.
