Only if you have a banjo, I know it is not legal on interstate highways.

My sister and b-i-l walked the Applachian trail from Maine to North Carolina one summer. Just an idea.

The Old Croton Aqueduct Trail goes along the Sawmill River Parkway in the Bronx/South Yonkers portion and I walk there frequently. Here in New York, many "Parkways" have walkways alongside for walking and (in one portion of the Belt Parkway in Brooklyn) riding horses!

Its perfectly legal to walk on most interstate highways, provided you stay on the grass shoulders. Hitchiking is legal in most states and you can get away with standing on the shoulder, but it is usually illegal to stand at an interchange, even in states that have legal hitchiking.

My opinion is that unless there is a pedestrian trail a la the Bronx River Pathway or the aforementioned Croton Trail, don't risk it. If not for legality, but for your own safety.

My family and I did, back in 1936. Traffic was a bit lighter then.
