2,251 named trails across 6,238 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.
A modest woodland trail descends through mixed forest into a remote ravine where OK Slip Falls is reported to plunge more than two hundred feet in a dramatic cascade. The path, covering just over three kilometers, offers a tranquil approach to what many consider one of the more powerful yet secluded waterfalls in the region. The setting rewards those willing to make the descent with a quiet appreciation of Adirondack wilderness, far from the crowds that gather at better-known destinations.
OK Slip Road is a short connector trail of just under a mile, likely part of the historic network of logging roads and slides that laced through working Adirondack forests. Its name suggests ties to the old lumber-transport slips—gravity-fed log chutes—that once moved timber down mountainsides to waterways below. At this length, it functions as a brief woods walk or link between longer routes rather than a destination in itself.
Old Faithful runs 1.5 miles through terrain that doesn't match the Yellowstone geyser's fame but serves its purpose as a connector or access route in the network. The relatively short distance makes it a quick out-and-back or a linking segment for longer loops. Check local trail maps for current conditions and trailhead access, as shorter trails like this sometimes see less maintenance than major routes.
Old Farm Road Trail is a short, mile-long route that likely follows the remnants of a historic agricultural access road. The easy grade and modest distance make it suitable for a quick outing or as a connector within a larger trail network. At just over a mile, it's brief enough to combine with adjacent trails if you're looking for more mileage.
Old Route 30 is a half-mile remnant of the original highway alignment, now bypassed by modern construction. The short stretch offers a quiet walk away from current traffic, though historical context and specific landmarks aren't well documented in trail records. Best treated as a brief leg-stretcher or connector rather than a destination.
Ord Road is a short 0.8-mile route that likely follows an old logging or access road, a common pattern for many shorter named trails in the Park. At just over a mile, it's brief enough for a quick out-and-back or a connector between longer routes. Check local trail registers or DEC resources for current conditions and trailhead access details.
At just two-tenths of a mile, the Overlook / Halfway Brook Trail is among the shortest named routes in the Adirondack trail system. The dual name suggests either a viewpoint near Halfway Brook or a connector segment linking two features along that drainage. Given the brief distance, it likely serves as a spur to a vista or a quick link between longer trails rather than a destination in itself.
