directions
this may help . You can always look up directions to the Bear Mountain Car Cruise it will get you close enough to see subies meeting in the lot.
I am trying to do my best so just bear with me on these.
From rockland and nyc area:
Take 9w north , after passing stony point continue over the mountain as soon as you come down the mountain . You will pass Iona Island on the right and take the first left uphill (there are signs for the car cruise at the bottom of the hill ) follow that until you come up to a small traffic circle (you should see the Bear Mountain Inn , the big field and the parking lot on the right as you enter the circle ) in the circle make the first right and then make the first left(There is a small guard shack as soon as you make that left go passed it ) and head into the back parking lot .
From newburgh and northern orange county :
Take 9w south until the bear mountain bridge traffic circle . Follow 9w south (second right as you enter the circle ) . Follow 9w passed Hessian lake on the right you will come to a stop light make a right up the hill at the light . drive passed the Bear Mountain Inn(on the right) follow that road (you should see a bunch of park police cars on the right) after them make a right . Drive pass the guard shack the parking lot is in the back .
