2,611 named trails across 6,101 miles of mapped centerlines — every state-managed corridor and community-mapped path in the Adirondack Park, cross- referenced with trailheads, lean-tos, parking, and the peaks they climb. Use the map to get your bearings, then narrow the list by region, operator, or what the trail reaches.
McCarthy Road runs 5.4 miles through what was once a railroad corridor serving the Kennecott copper mines, now a broad, mostly level route accessible to bicycles and foot traffic. The road connects the town of McCarthy to the abandoned mill town of Kennecott, offering a straightforward approach used by day hikers, visitors to the historic sites, and those continuing into the Wrangell–St. Elias backcountry. Expect gravel surface and intermittent views of the surrounding peaks as you cover the distance.
Mckeever Road North is a 0.2-mile connector in the western Adirondacks, likely a short access route or link between longer trails or forest roads. At just over 300 meters, it's brief enough to be a trailhead approach or a quick link in a larger network. Expect minimal elevation change and a walk measured in minutes rather than hours.
Middle Branch Corners Road is a very short connector measuring just one-tenth of a mile in the Adirondacks. At this length, it's likely a brief access segment linking a trailhead or parking area to another route rather than a destination itself. Check local trail maps to see what network or longer trail it serves.
This half-mile path provides direct access to Middle Settlement Lake, a quiet water body away from the main tourist corridors. The short distance makes it suitable for families or anyone looking for a quick walk to a lakeside destination. Expect a straightforward route with minimal elevation change, typical of access trails to smaller Adirondack ponds and lakes.
Mill Creek Road is a short 1.5-mile route that follows an old roadbed through the Adirondack backcountry. The relatively flat grade and wide corridor make it accessible for most hikers, though conditions can vary seasonally. Like many converted road trails in the park, it offers a straightforward walk with minimal elevation gain.
This half-mile path leads to the summit of Moose River Mountain, a modest peak in the western Adirondacks that offers views over the surrounding forest and river drainage. The short distance makes it accessible for a quick ascent, though the trail still involves typical Adirondack elevation gain and footing. Expect a round trip under an hour if you keep moving.
This connector spans just a tenth of a mile between Moss Lake and Big Moose Road, functioning as a brief access point rather than a destination trail. It's the kind of cut-off that appears on local networks to link longer routes or provide quick road access. Expect minimal elevation change and a walk measured in minutes.
Moss Lake Trail is a short 0.7-mile path that makes for an easy walk suitable for families or a quick outing. The distance suggests a straightforward there-and-back or possibly a loop connecting to a small body of water. With minimal elevation change typical of trails this length, expect level terrain and hiking shoes rather than technical footwear.
This short connector runs 1.2 miles between Moss Lake and the Bubb/Sis Lake area before meeting NY Route 28, linking water access points in the central Adirondacks. The trail serves as a practical segment for paddlers shuttling between put-ins or hikers stitching together loops in the Old Forge area. Expect quiet woods and relatively easy terrain given the modest distance.
Mount Tom Road West is a short 0.3-mile connector in the lake-studded region near Newcomb, likely serving as access or a link between longer routes rather than a destination itself. At half a kilometer, it's more of a brief passage than a standalone hike. Check local trail networks for how it fits into broader loop options or trailhead access in the area.
Mullins Flow Road is a short, 0.6-mile route in the Adirondacks, likely following an old access road or woods path. At under a mile, it's brief enough for a quick leg-stretcher or connector between longer trails. Check current conditions and access points locally, as short seasonal roads can vary in maintenance and trailhead signage.
