The D&R Canal Towpath is a short walk from the Bound Brook Station, on the Raritan Valley Line.

ETA: maybe ask on r/nycbike ?

EETA: ride the NEC to Princeton Jct, take the Dinky to Princeton, & hop over to the D&R Towpath by Lake Carnegie.

Also easy to get to from New Brunswick via the Northeast Corridor.

Erm, I'd debate that. The D&R towpath ends at Landing Lane. Can you provide a map of the routes from the train station to the towpath?

It's maybe a 5 minute bike ride down College Ave to George St. Takes you straight to Landing Lane Bridge. If you don't want to ride on George St you can take College Ave to Buccleuch Park that's parallel to George St and take that until you get to Landing Lane.

Along with your Princeton Junction suggestion, you can also go down to the Hamilton station and get to the towpath via Carnegie Road on the other side of The Crossings at Hamilton Station apartment complex. Train to Hamilton, ride your bike all the way back to New Brunswick. Not a bad way to spend a nice day.

You can also go down Albany street make a left on river road and you have a nice path through Johnson Park not too far down.
