Almost all of NY 22 is a two-lane rural road through small villages and hamlets. The exceptions are its southern end in the heavily populated Bronx and lower Westchester County, and a section that runs through the city of Plattsburgh near the northern end. The rural landscape that the road passes through varies from horse country and views of the reservoirs of the New York City watershed in the northern suburbs of the city, to dairy farms further upstate in the Taconic and Berkshire mountains, to the undeveloped, heavily forested Adirondack Park along the shores of Lake Champlain. An {{convert|86|mi|0|adj=on}} section from Fort Ann to Keeseville is part of the All-American Road known as the Lakes to Locks Passage.
The oldest portions of today's NY 22, in Westchester County and along the Lake Champlain shoreline, were Native American trails. Dutch, and after them English, settlers continued to use the road to get their farm products to market, with the southernmost portion eventually becoming the '''White Plains Post Road''' in the 18th and 19th centuries. In the early 20th century, as automobile use became widespread, the state paved the more heavily used sections and built new roads to create the current highway, first designated as NY 22 in 1930. In its early years the highway began in Manhattan; until 2008 its northern end was the Canadian border.
==Route description== NY 22 starts as an urban surface road, passing through the most populous communities along its route within its first {{convert|15|mi|km}}. After running northerly from its origin in the Bronx it veers slightly to the northeast in the vicinity of a traffic circle near Kensico Dam before heading northward for good as a mostly two-lane rural route all the way to the state's North Country.<ref name="nymap07">{{google maps |url = https://www.google.com/maps/dir/40.886,-73.82788/44.9602633,-73.5814738/@44.9673949,-73.6594834,19702m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m70!4m69!1m64!3m4!1m2!1d-73.8210193!2d40.9013575!3s0x89c28d3d217ecbc5:0x708bd09d4d0c96b4!3m4!1m2!1d-73.8252278!2d40.9183833!3s0x89c28d448fcad4c7:0xc4bbc97761a2a777!3m4!1m2!1d-73.8183698!2d40.9348575!3s0x89c29298a9f9556d:0xf3f9568ba2044a8f!3m4!1m2!1d-73.8071245!2d40.9697461!3s0x89c2931cd8664cc9:0xcdb8dac44f2c33fc!3m4!1m2!1d-73.7677244!2d41.0276131!3s0x89c29439a910ff55:0xe1777d7bc6a99db1!3m3!1m2!1d-73.6609!2d41.34594!3m3!1m2!1d-73.594127!2d41.396316!3m3!1m2!1d-73.57262!2d41.65647!3m4!1m2!1d-73.5179261!2d42.2064928!3s0x89dd897ec826c5d9:0xdc09b0dc903de0c8!3m3!1m2!1d-73.312036!2d43.139557!3m3!1m2!1d-73.410301!2d43.461143!3m4!1m2!1d-73.4316472!2d43.7108728!3s0x89e0073300da8601:0x995a11dbc7b3abbb!3m3!1m2!1d-73.437632!2d43.861257!3m4!1m2!1d-73.3591924!2d44.3091333!3s0x4cca88a83d722309:0x44fa8fc42772fd9d!1m0!2m1!1b1!3e0?hl=en |title = Overview Map of NY 22 |access-date = August 5, 2018 }}</ref>

It parallels the nearby Hutchinson River Parkway as it passes through the suburbs of Bronxville and Tuckahoe. At Wilson Woods Lake, it crosses under a railroad bridge on the Metro-North New Haven Line and becomes North Columbus Avenue, then has its first interchange with a freeway at the Cross County Parkway.<ref name="westchestermap" />
Country clubs on either side bracket NY 22's entry into Eastchester.<ref name="nymap07" /> It makes a turn to the northeast, passing the Vernon Hills Shopping Center to the right.

The White Plains Rural Cemetery is visible to the west as NY 22 continues northward out of the city.<ref name="nymap07"/> In North White Plains, the surrounding area becomes less developed as NY 22 becomes a four-lane undivided expressway, and goes over a gentle rise from which a short connector runs downhill to the traffic circle where the BRP ends and the Taconic State Parkway begins, just south of Kensico Dam.<ref name="nymap07"/>
===Kensico Reservoir to Brewster=== While the Taconic State Parkway continues along the northwest heading NY 22 had been following, NY 22 itself veers to the northeast along the reservoir's south shore. After crossing a small bridge over one of the reservoir's bays, NY 22 begins a thousand-foot ({{convert|1000|ft|m|disp=output only}}) concurrency, the first of 15 along its length, with NY 120.<ref name="nymap07"/> The combined roads pass just west of IBM's Armonk headquarters and the "Duke's Trees angle", the westernmost point in Connecticut, after which NY 22 becomes a four-lane divided expressway.<ref name="Duke's Trees">{{cite web |author = New York State Legislature |url = http://public.leginfo.state.ny.us/menugetf.cgi?COMMONQUERY=LAWS |title = New York State State Law § 2 |access-date = February 4, 2010 }}</ref> For the first time, NY 22 runs parallel to New York's eastern border, intersecting I-684 for the first of several times just north of the short portion of that highway in Connecticut.

After that junction, NY 22 bends back to the north, paralleling I-684 through the Westchester countryside of large wooded lots and houses well-screened from the road. In downtown Bedford, the first settlement since White Plains, the highway overlaps with NY 172 for a mile (1.6 km), its first concurrency with an east–west route, then veers back to the northwest at the center of town. Just to the north, NY 121, the only north–south state highway whose route is entirely east of NY 22, forks off from its southern terminus. Another mile past that, NY 22 returns to a due-north heading, passing the John Jay Homestead State Historic Site a National Historic Landmark, where it turns west briefly, and Harvey School, where it curves to the northwest again. After the Katonah Museum of Art it widens briefly at a major intersection with NY 35.<ref name="nymap07"/> {{convert|2|mi|km|spell=In}} north of that junction, NY 22 becomes parallel with I-684 into the Town of Somers and the hamlet of Goldens Bridge. On the other side of the Interstate, accessible via NY 138, is the Goldens Bridge station on Metro-North Railroad's Harlem Line, which begins a long parallel alignment with NY 22 at this point.<ref name="nymap07"/>
thumb|left|I-84 overpass north of Brewster|alt=A pair of bridges pass from left to right on tall supports that tower over the other structures in the area, such as telephone poles and single-story buildings. The two-lane NY 22 passes underneath the bridge and proceeds into the background. The railroad's Purdy's station is a short distance west of the next junction, NY 116. At another traffic light {{convert|400|ft}} to the north, NY 116 goes east to Titicus Reservoir at the northern intersection, the highway crosses under I-684, remaining between it and the railroad tracks. Just past the Interstate, NY 22 turns west onto Hardscrabble Road, which soon turns north again to follow the tracks to the next station, North Salem's hamlet of Croton Falls. Just north of the hamlet, NY 22 crosses under the tracks, and is joined by US 202.{{efn|US 202, signed as north–south in the other six states it traverses, is an east–west route in New York}} Immediately afterward, the road crosses back under the railroad again and enters Putnam County, following the Croton River north past the spillway of East Branch Reservoir.<ref name="nymap07"/>
After paralleling the reservoir for almost {{convert|2|mi|km|spell=in}}, a third route, US 6, joins the concurrency just east of the village of Brewster, forming the only three-route overlap along NY 22. The three routes cross under a high, long bridge carrying I-84, then veer east to an interchange with the north end of I-684. US 6 and 202 continue east for Danbury while NY 22 uses the northbound on-ramp of the I-684 roadway. NY 22 then briefly becomes a four-lane freeway before becoming a two-lane surface road after it cross the Croton's East Branch.<ref name="nymap07"/>
===Harlem Valley, Taconics and Berkshires=== right|thumb|NY 22 looking north into the Harlem Valley from Patterson|alt=A four-lane highway descends a hill and disappears from view. In the background are large, tree-covered mountains. NY 22 continues heading northeast along a narrow strip of land between the East Branch and Bog Brook reservoirs. It then resumes its northward heading, following a much straighter course than it had up to this point, on two lanes through wooded areas of the town of Patterson, where two local state highways, NY 312 and 164, come in from the west. The highway gradually expands to three and sometimes four lanes as it passes through built-up areas of strip development. Shortly after intersecting a third state highway, NY 311, and passing another strip plaza, NY 22 crosses into Dutchess County.<ref name="nymap07"/>
After another supermarket strip to the east, a long, gentle divided bend in the road almost a mile long ends with an overpass where NY 55 comes in from the west. It joins NY 22 as the two routes, returning to two lanes, pass through the eastern fringe of the village of Pawling and then by Trinity-Pawling School. Past the village, the railroad tracks edge closer to the highway as NY 22 enters the scenic Harlem Valley, near the lower end of the Taconic Mountains.<ref name="nymap07"/> The road curves more gently and takes longer straightaways, with lower density of residential and commercial development. {{convert|2|mi|km|spell=In}} from Pawling, the Appalachian Trail crosses the road next to the line's similarly named station.<ref name="nymap07" />
NY 22 and NY 55 continue their long curve into the town of Dover, past the Harlem Valley–Wingdale station next to the road across from the now-closed buildings of Harlem Valley Psychiatric Center. The NY 55 concurrency ends when that road forks off east towards Connecticut at the hamlet of Wingdale. The road continues through Dover Plains and into Amenia, where an overlap with NY 343 begins. The railroad line ends at Wassaic. NY 343 remains joined with NY 22 into the hamlet of Amenia, where it separates and heads towards Sharon, Connecticut. At the same junction, US 44 comes in from Millbrook to begin an overlap with NY 22.<ref name="nymap07"/> The valley opens up as the southern Taconics loom ahead.

After intersecting with NY 199 at its eastern end, NY 22 and US 44 veer northeast into the small village of Millerton in the northern protrusion of Dutchess County's Oblong, an area once the subject of a boundary dispute between New York and Connecticut in the late 17th century. US 44 continues eastward towards Lakeville, Connecticut, only a mile (1.6 km) east at this point, while NY 22 resumes its northward course into the shadow of the ridge ahead, where {{convert|2311|ft|m|adj=on}} Brace Mountain, Dutchess County's highest peak,<ref name="Brace Mountain">{{Cite web |title = Taconic State Park – Copake Falls Area |url = http://www.nysparks.com/parks/83/details.aspx |publisher = New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation |access-date = August 7, 2016 }}</ref> dominates the view.

NY 22 then crosses into Austerlitz, where the surrounding terrain becomes much more wooded and the valleys become narrower. In the center of town, the historic hamlet of Old Austerlitz, East Hill Road offers a short detour to Steepletop, the farm where Edna St. Vincent Millay lived, another National Historic Landmark. A short distance later, NY 22 intersects with NY 203 at its eastern end.<ref name="nymap07"/>
NY 22 then veers sharply to the northeast, resuming a northward direction within {{convert|150|ft}} of the state line, the highway's closest approach to it along its entire length. It then rounds a mountain and heads west, paralleling the New York State Thruway's Berkshire section (I-90) for a mile. NY 980D (an unsigned reference route) leaves to the east, where it becomes Massachusetts Route 102 at the state line. After Thruway exit B3, NY 22 resumes its northerly heading.

North of that junction, it begins to run through a deep, isolated, lightly populated valley in the New York section of the Berkshires.{{efn|Geologically these are still the Taconics, but due to their adjacency often commingled with the Berkshires to their east.}} Wide curves take the road through the town of Berlin. NY 22 trends further west, then back east to where NY 2 crosses via an overpass at Petersburgh on its way to Petersburg Pass, the northernmost crossing of the New York–Massachusetts state line. The next road to head east from NY 22, NY 346 at North Petersburgh, enters Vermont.<ref name="nymap07"/>
Shortly afterward, the highway descends gently from the Berkshires to meet another major east–west state road, NY 7. After turning northeast to join it at a traffic light, NY 22 overlaps with Route 7 for {{convert|1500|ft}}, then forks off to the north just before crossing the Hoosic River. NY 22 follows the river for {{convert|2|mi}} to Hoosick Falls, the first village it has passed through since Millerton. There are no other state routes here, but after another {{convert|2|mi|km|spell=in}}, at North Hoosick, NY 67 comes in from the east and the two roads overlap as they leave Rensselaer County.<ref name="nymap07"/>

After {{convert|4|mi|km|spell=in}}, it reaches Cambridge, where NY 313 forks off to the east. In the middle of town, NY 372, a local connector to Greenwich, ends.<ref name="nymap07"/> North of Cambridge, the highway continues through a rolling landscape of fields and farms, the low transitional country between the Appalachians and the Adirondacks. Beyond NY 29's eastern terminus at Greenwich Junction, NY 22 heads eastward again through {{convert|18|mi|km}} of countryside until, just before reaching Granville, it comes within {{convert|0.5|mi|m}} of the state line, the closest it has come to that boundary since Austerlitz. At the village's south end, NY 22 intersects NY 149 and the two routes overlap for {{convert|400|ft}} until Route 149 begins its short journey to Vermont. Just north of Granville, the first of NY 22's two suffixed routes, NY 22A, begins its route running closely parallel to the state line and then into Vermont, where it becomes Vermont Route 22A (VT 22A), paralleling the parent route for some distance on the other side of the state line.<ref name="nymap07"/> left|thumb|View to the Drowned Lands at the south end of Lake Champlain from near Whitehall|alt=In the foreground is a small cluster of trees that has built up alongside NY 22.

Two large mountain ranges are barely visible in the far-off distance. Immediately after this junction, NY 22 begins a long curve away from the state line that has it running due west at the end of NY 40 in North Granville.

===Adirondack Park and Lake Champlain=== As NY 22 bends westward after leaving Whitehall, it rounds the north end of the ridge to the west, offering views into Vermont. Once again the Vermont state line is very near NY 22, but now it is separated from New York by water instead of land. The stream at the bottom of this valley, surrounded by the low lying Drowned Lands flood plain, is the inflow for Lake Champlain. The lake's South Bay, which the road crosses immediately after this turn, is also the Blue Line. NY 22 has now entered the Adirondack Park, the {{convert|6.1|e6acre|km2|adj=on}} Forest Preserve and National Historic Landmark, and the largest publicly protected area in the contiguous United States.<ref name="APA page">{{cite web|title=The Adirondack Park|url=https://apa.ny.gov/About_Park/index.html|publisher=Adirondack Park Agency|access-date=August 8, 2018}}</ref> Within the park, NY 22 mainly follows the lakeshore, closer to some of its more populated areas.<ref name="nymap07"/> right|thumb|NY 22 in Washington County north of Whitehall|alt=A two-lane paved road curves rightward away from the viewer toward a rise in the center of the image amid a snowy landscape of fields and woodlots under mostly cloudy skies, with a ridge of hills on the left It climbs through rock cuts as it meanders north on the narrowing isthmus between Lakes Champlain and George.

The highway skirts the northeastern edge of the village, the site of key battles in both the French and Indian and Revolutionary Wars, as NY 74 comes in from the ferry to the east, the first intersecting state route since Whitehall, ending the longest such break on NY 22 at {{convert|24.9|mi}}. The two routes overlap for almost {{convert|2|mi|km|spell=in}} until NY 74 goes straight ahead at the intersection with NY 9N, while NY 22 turns right to join NY 9N, the longest suffixed route in the state, and return to its northbound orientation for the longest of its concurrencies, at {{convert|25.5|mi}}.<ref name="nymap07"/>
At first, NY 22 and NY 9N veer west, away from the lake, but then return to its shoreline to avoid a nearby mountain, just before Crown Point. NY 185, a small connector road, runs from NY 9N and NY 22 along the peninsula to become VT 17. The road remains close to the widening lake for the next {{convert|15|mi|km}}, with the tracks of the Delaware and Hudson Railroad, used today by CSX for freight and Amtrak for passenger service between New York and Montreal, sometimes immediately to the east. After passing through Port Henry to Westport, where 9N leaves heading west for Elizabethtown. Beyond that junction, NY 22 again turns inland, going through the easy pass around Split Rock Mountain, going northwest to Wadhams where it turns northeast to Whallonsburg, then north. At Boquet, it makes an abrupt turn to go {{convert|3|mi}} due east back to the lakeshore and ferry landing at Essex, where it connects to the Charlotte–Essex Ferry via Dock Street, leading to VT F-5 on the opposite side of Lake Champlain.<ref name="nymap07"/> left|thumb|View of Vermont and Lake Champlain near Essex|alt=A two-lane highway in a wooded area during autumn.

NY 22 and US 9 join, closely parallel to the Adirondack Northway (I-87), the only other route in the state to directly connect New York City with Canada. The three routes, spread over many miles in the southern part of the state, run through a narrow corridor for {{convert|2|mi|km|spell=in}} until US 9 and NY 22 veer east again toward Keeseville.<ref name="nymap07"/>
Here, NY 9N ends and US 9 and NY 22 separate, ending the last concurrency along the latter. The two will exchange corridors, with US 9 following the lake shore line while NY 22 remains mostly inland.

===Old roads=== The road from the modern-day Bronx (then part of Westchester County) through White Plains to Bedford and points north was originally an old Native American path.<ref name=nyt83>{{cite news |first = Roberta |last = Hershenson |url = https://www.nytimes.com/1983/08/21/nyregion/old-indian-trail-called-route-22.html |title = Old Indian Trail Called Route 22 |newspaper = The New York Times |date = August 21, 1983 |page = WC1 |access-date= February 9, 2026}}</ref> This path was later used and widened by the first European settlers. During colonial times, the road was known as "the road to Bedford and Vermont".<ref name=nyt83/> Further north, near Lake Champlain, the route now used by NY 22 was used by the St. Francis Indians of Canada as they went south to find warmer fishing areas.<ref name=nyt50>{{cite news |newspaper = The New York Times |url = https://www.nytimes.com/1950/07/23/archives/topics-of-the-times.html |title = Topics of the Times |date = July 23, 1950 |page = E8 |access-date = February 9, 2026}}</ref> The old road was also used heavily during the American Revolution to transport iron south from the mines in the Adirondacks.<ref name=nyt50/>
Once White Plains became the county seat of Westchester in 1759, the road between the village and the city of New York (then encompassing only Manhattan) became an important route and was established as the White Plains Post Road. Before 1797, the main road heading to points north and east out of Manhattan went via Kingsbridge along the old Boston Post Road.<ref name=jenkins>{{cite book |access-date = November 30, 2007 |url = https://archive.org/details/storybronxfromp00jenkgoog |first = S. |last = Jenkins |title = The Story of the Bronx |publisher = G.

The old White Plains Post Road roughly followed the alignment of modern-day ''White Plains Road'', which was laid out in 1863.<ref name=jenkins/> (The original post road was to the east of the modern-day avenue).

Legislative route 1 went from the New York City line north along the White Plains Post Road to White Plains, then detoured to Harrison (via Westchester Avenue), before proceeding north to Armonk (via modern NY 120). Legislative route 1 continued north along modern NY 22 to Austerlitz, where it then turned northwest to Valatie (via modern NY 203 and NY 980B), then followed US 9 to Albany. Legislative route 22 had two segments. The southern segment began in Troy, following NY 7 to Hoosick, then went north along modern NY 22 up to Putnam Station (south of Ticonderoga).
