This is in Westchester County. It's very popular among birders. Most people park at either the main parking lot (fee) at 41.113252, -73.834791, or the free area at 41.106365, -73.844567.
Maybe everybody knew this but me, but there is a very attractive free third option. It's on route 448 at A: 41.094967, -73.836635. There is room for around 10 cars here. There is also room for maybe four cars at B: 41.094585, -73.835872, but that is less attractive. Google maps does not adequately show the trails here. From A, walk around the gate and IMMEDIATELY turn right and go up the path. This merges with another. You pass a house on your right up a hill. In 100 yards or so you cross Rockefeller Brook. Turn right and join the main gravel trail about 41.096705, -73.836470. This is a very nice level path all the way to the beautiful open fields area. BTW the Stone Barns area is closed. You can't park there.
