Getting to the Gunks from Newburg
Here's my official approach route that avoids New Paltz:
- Take Exit 6 from I-84, turn right (north).
- At the first light, go right on Rock Cut road (County #23)
- Past a light and then to the next traffic light: route 300. Turn left.
(You can also follow 300 from Newburg but this is a little slower).
- Either turn right on route 208 or (better) turn right at the
flashing yellow light with the `airport' sign. (County #21)
This ends at route 208 where you turn right.
- Turn left at the light (Route 44).
This takes about 30 minutes from Newburg and does not have the long
traffic jams that you get in the fall coming through New Paltz.
