Snowshoe Tours at Natural Stone Bridge and Caves!


Grand Opening
Stone Bridge & CAVES
Snowshoeing Adventure Tours.
On Thursday January 14, 2010, for the first time in its 55 year history, the Stone Bridge and surrounding property is open to the public during the winter.
Over 4 miles of trails (6.4 miles with roundtrips) highlighting views of Trout Brook, Sinkholes, Huge Glacial Erratic Boulders, & Vertical Ledges are currently available. See the Stone Bridge, the LARGEST marble CAVE ENTRANCE in the East. Constantly changing, everyday is a new experience at Natural Stone Bridge & Caves.
DAY PASSES for self-guided tours are available from Thursday – Sunday from 10am – 4pm (closed M, T & W)

EVENING MOONLIGHT TOURS are offered on Saturdays, 5pm-9pm. The walk begins with a 40min guided tour of the Stone Bridge Cave (lighted) followed by self-guided tour of the additional trails. A warm campfire and marshmallows await you after the hike.

Also included with either the Day or Evening Pass purchase is FREE use of our 9 “hole” Disc (Frisbee) Golf Course. Bring your own disc or we will provide you with a free rental disc. Playing in the snow is a blast!

SNOWSHOE RENTALS are available for use on site. Please call ahead to reserve (518-494-2283). Group Rates (10+) are available with prior arrangement only.

Located just 2.5 miles off of I-87, exit 26 at the end of Stone Bridge Rd, this location is a short trip from the Lake George or Lake Placid regions. Upon arrival, proceed to the lower parking area to the log lodge building and enter through the green double doors to the small heated gift shop. Hot drinks, snacks and souvenirs are available.
