The staff at the winery are very accommodating if you want to park in their lot and go out for a walk on their land. The Medomak Valley Land Trust trail passes through the fields behind the winery, crosses through woods, and deposits you a bit down the road, which you can follow back to your car for a 0.9-mile walk. Check out the store after; I bought a bottle of apple wine and was tempted by the cranberry-apple one as well.
