Blueberry Trail

Winding through just over seven kilometers of Adirondack terrain, this blue-disk-blazed trail under NYSDEC management offers a moderate woodland traverse that is reported to reward hikers with quiet forest passages and occasional vantage points. The route, marked consistently enough for confident navigation, takes its name from the berry patches that are said to flourish along certain stretches during summer months. At roughly 4.6 miles, the trail provides a half-day excursion for those seeking immersion in the middle-elevation forests characteristic of the region.
