About this place

Open Memorial Day Weekend (May 11) through November 11

A New York State Access Pass provides free access to this facility for people with disabilities and those within their vehicle.

Accessible parking and viewing vista areas (The Narrows, Lake George, and the Eagle’s Nest) along the 5.5 mile, two-lane highway leading to the top. At the top there is accessible parking (go around the top and parking is on the right), pathways of firm stone and ashphalt, a picnic pavillion with wheelchair seating, and accessible restrooms.

Drive time is approximately ten minutes from entry booth to the parking lot, plus time spent at the overlooks, which is worthwhile. Views can be as far as 100 miles from the 2,030 foot summit, and include Vermont’s Green Mountains, New Hampshire’s White Mountains, New York’s Adirondack High Peaks and on a very clear day, the Laurentian Mountains of Canada.
