Hike: Nine Corner Lake

Address: 
Route 29A
Pine Lake, NY 12032

Nestled in a tree surrounded

 

area of the Southern Adirondack

 

Mountains you will find the

 

charming hike to Nine Corner Lake.

 

 

You will reach this destination with

 

a brief 1/2 hour scenic walk.

 

As you walk the gently sloping trail

 

to the lake you will enjoy flora &

 

fauna, common to the area.

 

 

Many deer, fox, birds and salamanders

 

can be seen as you pass through

 

the beautiful habitat.

 

 

During this family orientated hike,

 

you will cross many streams with

 

some resting spots which are great

 

for picture taking.

 

 

Once at the lake, you will find

 

pristine water that allows for swimming,

 

picnics or relaxing.

 

 

There are areas for tenting for those

 

who wish to stay and enjoy the beauty,

 

falling asleep to the sounds of nature.

 

 

As majestic & peaceful as Nine Corner

 

Lake may be in the summer, the fall

 

foliage makes this site breathtaking

 

with its red, orange and gold colors.

 

 

To get there take Route 29A to the

 

intersection of Route 10 near Pine

 

Lake, where you will see the

 

designated parking area.
