The Adirondacks region is both wild and civilized in nature. Set in an immense, lush area of northern New York, this region is home to 3,000 lakes and ponds, thousands of miles of hiking trails and the spectacular Adirondack Mountains. It also boasts four-star restaurants and historic attractions.
Scenic Adirondack State Park, the largest protected back-country east of the Mississippi, is just part of a widespread network of pristine nature-preserves, both public and private. Tour the many small villages, hike the mountains, play the numerous golf courses, or paddle and fish the day away in local waters.
