Who’s ready for a hike? The Adirondacks offer thousands of miles of hiking trails!

In Lake Placid, Henry’s Woods is one of my favorite trails since it’s so convenient – just an 8 minute walk from the cottage. And you can either go on a 3 mile hike or a 5 mile hike.

It’s a great work-out whether you’re running or just walking the dog. And it’s worth ascending for the beautiful views! Have I mentioned how amazing it smells up here in these woods?! WOW!! It’s incredible. Especially in the fall..

The tallest mountain in New York, Mount Marcy has several rewarding trails for more experienced hikers.

The 15 mile-long Primary Trailhead passes by Marcy Dam, which has excellent views of the High Peaks, follows Phelps Brook, and culminates in a moderate ascent from Indian Falls to the tree line.

High Falls Gorge is a wonderful family friendly option. The 30 minute walk takes hikers around four majestic waterfalls, and educational signage along the way illuminates the region’s natural history, geology, and forestry.

What’s your favorite ADK trail?

I just want to congratulate you on the exquisite job you did on the Cottages! Did I mention how dreamy the beds are? I had my best night's sleep in weeks. Ahhhhh Oh my god! I just want to move in today. You have such lovely taste. It has such a peaceful aura. We all had a wonderful stay. Thank you again.
