Summer delights in the Hub
Summer is all about soaking up all the time outdoors you can, whether that be visiting your favorite campground, trying something new and exciting, or simply relaxing at the lake. A "hub" is a center of activity, and the Adirondack Hub is no different. The Adirondack Hub is a basecamp, a gateway to epic, beautiful, and unique adventures that come in all sorts of shapes, sizes, and speeds. We are home to peaceful lakes and rivers, hiking trails, horseback riding adventures, cycling, unique events, and gorgeous camping opportunities. Does that sound good to you? It sounds good to us!
Hiking has been a staple of Adirondack summers for a long time. From mellow woods trails to rugged mountains, there are hiking trails in the Adirondack Hub for all ages and abilities, so you can take on that big hike or a casual walk in the woods. Want to experience the Adirondack Hub on two wheels? The roads here are low-traffic, winding, and scenic, even head off the road onto the gravel and dirt pathways through the forests.
Fun events abound, from family-friendly square dancing in Schroon Lake to the cool combo of history and biking at Paradox Brewery's annual Handlebarley. Travel through historic landmarks and cap off the long journey with live music, pizza, and craft beer.
If you like wilderness paddling, then the Adirondack Hub is the place to be! The headwaters of the Hudson and Opalescent rivers are stunning and should be on every paddler's bucket list. If you're up for a challenge this summer, why not try the Schroon Paddle Challenge?
How about lodging with a five-million star rating? Whether you're at a campground or want a more remote campsite, you'll sleep peacefully under the night sky. Tap into your wild side in designated Wilderness Areas, great places to relax, hike, and camp. You can even walk through history as you make your way around the Adirondack Hub; humans and nature have coexisted here for generations!
