Knight Farm Trail

The Trail, off Laten Knight Rd., travels a lollipop loop around the largest of the Knight Farm properties and crosses actively farmed fields and adjoining woodland areas, surrounded by old stone walls. This trail was envisioned in the original conservation easement on the property and the efforts of Cranston Councilman Steve Stycos have carried this covenant to fruition.

The one-mile walk is moderate with lots of opportunity for plant identification and small-animal spotting. The Trail is rustic and open in daylight hours only, there are no facilities of any kind and walkers should take note to dress for wooded areas.
