We are pleased to announce the re-opening of Palmer Road Preserve in Schodack, NY. The 57-acre property was transferred to Rensselaer Land Trust upon the voluntary dissolution of the Schodack Area Land Trust in late 2020. On Saturday, July 31 from 10 am to 11 am Rensselaer Land Trust will hold a public re-opening ceremony. The land trusts invites the community to join them as they celebrate this special place.

Located in a residential community near Miller Road in Schodack, the property features an extensive walking trail system. The entrance to Palmer Road Preserve is located just beyond the cul-de-sac at the end of Thoroughbred Drive. The Preserve features a 1-mile loop trail system. Hiking, birdwatching, and other forms of passive recreation are permitted and encouraged.

Rensselaer Land Trust protects the open spaces, watersheds and natural habitats of New York’s capital region for the benefit of our communities and future generations. For 34 years, RLT has conserved important lands in our area through voluntary land protection agreements and land donations and purchases with conservation-minded landowners.
