adirondacks

June 21 is National Hiking Day. Are willing to take on one of the most challenging hikes in New York State and one of the toughest in the country?

Boat inspections are now mandatory in the Adirondacks.

This four and a quarter-million-dollar estate has one hundred sixty feet of lake frontage and sits on Arcady Bay. There are five bedrooms with rustic and state-of-the-art amenities. The woodworking and craftsmanship throughout are gorgeous. Check out the boat dock and the spacious, lush landscaping. There is also a private beach, tennis, racquetball, basketball, and shuffleboard courts as part of the Arcady Bay Estates.

Why does everyone assume if you're from New York, you live in the city? There is SO MUCH more to the Empire State than the empire on Wall Street.

In an effort to alleviate parking problems and hiking crowds, the Adirondack Mountain Reserve in Keene is continuing with its reservation system. They started it last year and decided to keep it going.

If you're someone who loves animals and you're looking for a unique experience unlike any other, here's one for you.

This beautiful Lake George log home is nestled in the woods but also comes with 153 feet of North West Bay lakefront property. There is an incredibly large great room with a gorgeous stone fireplace and loads of windows that provide a stunning view of Lake George and the Adirondacks. Right off the incredible wrap-around deck, there is actually a tram that conveniently takes you and your guests directly to the shorefront or boathouse! The shorefront offers a relaxing sundeck and a great beach area for swimming. Literally, anywhere you are on this property you can enjoy gorgeous views of the lake and mountains.

How deep this beaver goes to take wood will make you blush.

If you are looking for something cool and different to do this winter, head on up to the Lake Geroge region and check out the many ice bars they have to offer. There are full frozen bars you can sit at, enjoy ice luges, fire pits surrounded by ice, and even photo-ops with ice sculptures you can get in or pose with.

Want to start the new year on the right foot or the left then right then left then right? It's the Department of Environmental Conservation's (DEC) annual First Day Hikes through the Adirondacks. There are six hikes and are both guided and non-guided hikes in the Central and Eastern Adirondacks. They are all set to be held on Saturday, January 1, 2022.
