Great Sacandaga Lake spans 26,730 acres across forty-two miles — the largest lake in the southeastern Adirondacks and the Park's strongest walleye fishery. Depths reach seventy-five feet; multiple launches ring the shore, and the mix of walleye, bass, pike, and perch suits both beginners and anglers willing to learn its contours.
