Tour Overview

We take you on 40 miles of the Central Adirondack Trail, a state-designated scenic highway from Big Bend on the Hudson River to Warren County's far northwest corner, home to Crane and Gore mountains, Thirteenth Lake, and the hamlets of North Creek and North River. When we reach Warrensburg, we'll follow the Hudson River and the route Thomas Durant took in building the Adirondack Railroad, passing through the land that was once John Thurman's "forest citadel." Then it's onward to North Creek and, along the Hudson, North River.
