The Council Trail is easy to access from Kinderhook Cemetery with both ends of the trail connecting to the Campfire Trail close to the main trail entrance. This trail can be done in either direction, and with the exception of a few short sections, has minimal climbing. The trail is gentle and is a great beginner/intermediate option or a fun way to add some extra miles to a bigger ride
