“Whether it’s summer, fall or winter, once you’ve experienced a vacation at Garnet Hill, you will want to make it your family tradition”

Garnet Hill offers year round vacation pleasures with opportunities for leisurely days as well as participation in organized programming.

 Natural Relaxing Vacation CenterThe Garnet Hill area is a natural paradise for those seeking a break from the hectic rush of everyday life.  In spring, summer or fall, 70 miles of marked and mapped trails provide gentle walks for the nature enthusiast, while the rugged mountain scenery presents the experienced hiker with more vigorous routes and climbs. Snowy, Peaked, Crane, Blue and Chimney Mountains are all nearby.  Fine swimming is offered in the clear waters of Thirteenth Lake, while its beautiful beach will reward those who prefer to just laze in the sun. Boating, canoeing and fishing can also be enjoyed, with rental canoes, kayaks, and rowboats available. Garnet Hill also maintains two tennis courts near the ski/bike shop.  Garnet Hill's extensive cross-country ski trail network is transformed into a mountain bike trail system in the summer and fall.  In addition to the ski trails we have developed an impressive interconnecting network of single-track bike trails - the rides are endless!

Exciting New York Rafting and Outdoor ExperiencesWhitewater rafting on the nearby Upper Hudson River is another great spring, summer, and fall attraction.  Several rafting companies nearby offer a day’s activity with the opportunity to rest and relax at Garnet Hill, turning your week or weekend into a full vacation.

Within an easy and scenic drive are many area attractions, from museums and nature centers to natural wonders, historic sites and boat cruises - the area around Garnet Hill has it all.  To appreciate the exciting mixture of fall colors, a gondola ride to the summit of Gore Mountain is a must-do autumn activity.

Trail Conditions & Weather
Spring has arrived here in North Country! We'll see tons of sunshine and highs in the middle 60s through to the 70s over the next few days.

Birds are chirping and geese have been around, woodpeckers are knocking about and beaver activity has been spotted on William Blake Pond. Though there is still snow around we are closed for skiing. You may find skiable terrain in patches throughout our trail system if you need a last snow fix. There is still some snow in the woods, so hiking will necessitate waterproof footgear.

The Garnet Hill Lodge dining room is becoming quite the hang-out with it's 1930s Adirondack charm, massive garnet-stone speckled fireplace, 13th Lake overlook and Chef Andrew's incredible meals. Lunch and dinner are being served daily, including Chef Andrew's fabulous dinner specials tonight! Call 518-251-2444 for more details and to reserve your spot.
