As you are in your final descent off the mountain, you will encounter three exits on your right for West Point.
The first exit (labeled "RT. 218/293," NOT West Point) loops back under Route 9W, past the West Point golf course, and onto Route 218 to the Washington Gate. This gate is ONLY for DoD ID card holders and the gate has limited hours.
The second exit (labeled "West Point/Highland Falls/Rte. 218") loops over Route 9W directly to the Stony Lonesome Gate which is open 24 hours, and offers the most direct access to the commissary, post exchange, post gas station, shoppette and the Michie/Holleder athletic complex. To go to the Visitors Center and the business district of the Village of HIghland Falls, turn right at the stop sign immediately after you cross over 9W, and at the bottom of the long hill you will take a hard left at the T intersection.
The third exit loops over 9W and leads through the business district of Highland Falls, past the Visitors Center and West Point Museum, to the Thayer Gate which is open 24 hours a day. This gate provides the most direct access to the Thayer Hotel, the Bowling Center, Army Community Service, the West Point Post Office, and eventually the Central Area.
