ADIRONDACKS HIGH PEAKS
Read moreHigh Peaks are the 46 mountains of the Adirondack Range. The highest point in the park is Mount Marcy, which rises to 1,629 metres, followed by Algonquin Peak (1,559 m), Mount Haystack (1,510 m) and Mount Skylight (1,501 m). Those who managed to climb the 46 mountains gave themselves the nickname Forty-Sixers (46ers). Hiking trails bypass the mountains and others allow you to reach their summit. The Van Hoevenberg Trail is a 14-mile round trip trail that leads to the top of Mount Marcy. It takes between 6 and 10 hours of hiking depending on your physical condition.
CRANBERRY LAKE
Read moreCranberry Lake is the third largest lake in Adirondack Park, and one of the most beautiful. With the 50 miles of trails that surround it and make up the Cranberry Lake Loop, it is particularly suitable for hiking, whatever your level. Hiking trails include the Burnt Bridge Pond Trail (7 miles), Olmstead Pond Trail (3.2 miles) and Bear Mountain Trail (2.7 miles). You can also fish in the lake, boating and, in winter, cross-country skiing and snowmobiling in the area.
