Limekiln Creek

Limekiln Creek drains southwest out of Limekiln Lake toward the Moose River — a quiet, tannic flow through mixed hardwood and hemlock corridors in the western edge of the Old Forge Wild Forest. The creek sees minimal foot traffic compared to the lakes and ponds it connects, but it's a known route for paddlers linking water-to-water in the southwestern Adirondacks. No fish species data on record, though the surrounding watershed holds brookies and the occasional brown trout in cooler stretches. Access typically follows informal routes off nearby forest roads or via put-in points along the Moose River Plains network.
