County Route 9 (CR 9) is a two-lane highway in eastern Orange County, New York, in the United States. The route is 10.0 miles (16.1 km) long, stretching north from an intersection with New York State Route 32 (NY 32) in the hamlet of Central Valley to a junction with NY 218 in the town of Cornwall, just west of the village of Cornwall-on-Hudson. CR 9 passes several historical buildings, such as the Carvey–Gatfield House, Cromwell Manor, the David Sutherland House, and the Sands Ring Homestead Museum.

The northern terminus of CR 9 was originally located at Quaker Avenue in Cornwall, then designated as part of New York State Route 307. NY 307 continued north on Main Street to Academy Avenue, where it ended at NY 218. In 1980, ownership and maintenance of NY 307 was transferred to Orange County, and its routing became part of two county routes: an extended CR 9 and the new County Route 107.

CR 9 begins at an intersection with NY 32 in Central Valley, just north of its intersection with NY 17. The route heads northeastward, passing homes and tree patches. There are intersections with local roads, as CR 9, also known as Smith Clove Road, crosses the New York State Thruway (Interstate 87 or I-87). The road continues, passing Filters Lake and Central Valley Golf Club. Soon afterwards, CR 9 passes through a large patch of forests, which also covers parts of West Point Military Academy.
