The Adirondack Park

The Adirondack Park was created in 1882 by the NY State Legislature and includes

over 6.1 million acres of public and private land.

The Park is part of the Canadian Shield which are an older formation underlying half of

Canada. Rocks making up the Adirondacks are about 1 billion years old.

The Adirondacks is home to over 130,000 New Yorkers with 105 towns and villages.

It is the most unusual park in the US with its untouched forest, thousands of ponds

and lakes, wilderness trails and spectacular mountains!

The Adirondacks

were originally

claimed by two

Indian nations, the

Iroquois and the

Algonquin's.

The name

Adirondacks is still challenged to-

day; with some say

it is an authentic

Indian word used by

the Iroquois who

referred to the

Algonquin's who

were forced to live

off tree buds and

bark during hard

winters. Other

historians say it was

derived from a tribe

of the St Lawrence

back in the 1500s and meant They of the Great Rocks.

Trees or rocks, come visit for yourself. You are sure to have a wonderful time

with our quaint villages and vast wilderness.

quarters of these people said they are willing to sacrifice to do that.
