This is a pleasant place to walk, especially if you are looking for a gentle trail. While it’s not wheelchair accessible, it is a good for older and younger walkers.
The 1.1-mile loop trail follow an old, mossy road, and is well blazed. It is wide and easy, and mostly flat. While it doesn’t have a view, it comes very close to one, at the edge of a wide field where you can catch glimpses of hills through trees.
The land is owned by the town, and the Landmark Heritage Trust takes care of the trail.
Directions: To reach the preserve, turn onto Kennard Road from Route 9, across the stret from the Newburgh Town Office. Go roughly 0.5 miles up the road and you’ll see a small sign for the preserve on your right. The pull-in for cars is fairly small. (Google maps shows Kennard Road heading off to the left as you come in, but it’ll be obvious to follow it to the right when the road splits.)
We love the Kennard Road trail in Newburgh
we hike often & now we are seeing other new trails branching off the main trail & it’s awesome! Many thanks to all who make the trail and maintaining them & marking the trails 
It sounds like I should come back soon and explore more there! And I agree, the people who make and maintain trails should be sainted!
