Rock Pond to Lilypad Pond Trail

This 1.3-mile connector links Rock Pond and Lilypad Pond in the northwestern Adirondacks, likely part of the trail network around Cranberry Lake or the Five Ponds Wilderness. The short distance suggests a relatively quick traverse between the two water bodies, useful for those stringing together a loop or accessing remote fishing spots. Expect typical north-country terrain—likely roots, rocks, and potentially wet sections where drainage crosses the path.
