New York State Thruway (87 South) to exit 18 (New Paltz). Make a right onto Route 299 East to Route 9-W. Turn right onto 9-W South. At Highland, follow signs to the Mid Hudson Bridge. Take the first exit after the Bridge—a right onto Route 9 South for about 5 miles. Make the first right after the Best Western Motel onto Sheafe Road (bear right when the road forks). We are the second driveway on the right, immediately after the Sheafe Road Elementary School across from Delavergne Ave. The sign at our driveway reads: 245 Kagyu Thubten Chöling.
