Ridge Road is one of a few roads within Stewart State Forest. The roads are a mix of pavement, dirt, and gravel and are really popular for hiking, running, and biking. The singletrack trails definitely give you more of a feeling of being in nature, but you can walk at a better clip on the roads.

Whether you are looking for wide and smooth roads or tight singletrack trails, Stewart State Forest probably has it. This section of Drakes Trail is one of the most southern singletrack trails in the trail system. The paths cross over each other and over the service roads in the forest, so you can create an almost endless number of loops.

From this trail you will have far-reaching views towards the hills in the distance. The Scenic Overlook Trail is a fun short trail, and part of the wider Riverbend Trails network. This is a multi-use trail so please respect other trail users, particularly as walkers and bikers may be passing in both directions.

Capture the beauty of the pond with its diverse backdrop of trees, reeds, and occasional wildflowers. Keep an eye out for diverse birdlife, turtles, and other wildlife while exploring the pond and surrounding trails.

The trails here have been created by the Gardiner Trail Alliance since 2021. There is a great group of volunteers that have been working on adding new trails. There are not many facilities here, but a new dedicated parking area is now open.

Stewart State Forest, nestled in Orange County, New York, this expansive forest seamlessly blends wetlands, fields, and forest. With 22 miles of gravel roads and 18 miles of hiking trails, it's a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. Engage in hiking, biking, horseback riding, hunting, cross country skiing, snowmobiling, bird watching, and fishing. Encounter a diverse wildlife population, from white-tailed deer and coyotes to bobcats, wild turkeys, great blue herons, and majestic hawks.

The trail system at Stewart has something for everybody. But keep in mind that at the end of the year (November/December) mountain bike trails are closed due to hunting season. Check this site for updates: https://business.facebook.com/pg/stewart.forest.MTB/posts/
