  • Public information session: the trail in 2027

    Dutchess Manor (Fjord Trail Visitor Center) — 263 NYS Route 9D, Town of Fishkill. Our coordinate for this building is accurate to about 150 metres, so follow the road address rather than the map pin.

    What opens first, what it will look like and what is still undecided — with time for questions. ASL interpreted, indoors, seated, step-free.

  • Benefit evening for the Fjord Trail

    Dutchess Manor (Fjord Trail Visitor Center) — 263 NYS Route 9D, Town of Fishkill.

    An evening at Dutchess Manor in support of the capital project. Ticketed. The only paid event on the programme, and it is here so the calendar's free/paid filter has something to filter.
