The Adirondacks and Thousand Islands: Places to Explore

Old Forge and Eagle Bay

Located in the southwest corner of Adirondack Park, the village of Old Forge sits at the west end of the Fulton Chain of Lakes. In years past it was a hub for wealthy travelers who arrived by train and then continued by boat to their Adirondack hotels and summer homes. Today it's touristy, with a water park and souvenir stores, but short side trips take you away from the fray.
