Summer in the southern Adirondacks

Summer is all about soaking up all the time outdoors you can, whether that be visiting your favorite campground, trying something new and exciting, or simply relaxing at the lake with the family. A "hub" is a center of activity, and the Adirondack Hub is no different. Think of us as your basecamp, a gateway to epic, beautiful, and unique adventures that come in all sorts of shapes, sizes, and speeds. And when it comes to family memories by the campfire, out on the lake, or up in the mountains, you’ll be filling up that scrapbook in no time.

Tap into your wild side with a world of outdoor adventure. Hiking has been a staple of Adirondack summers for generations, with trails perfect for little explorers or those looking for a challenge. If you find yourself longing to be out on the water, you’re in luck! Rivers and lakes spider across the region, carving through beautiful scenery and making for the perfect paddling experience. 

How about lodging with a five-million star rating? Whether you're at a campground or a remote campsite tucked deep in the woods, pitch a tent, set up a campfire, and share stories under the starry sky to create the perfect memories for you and your family. The Adirondack Hub provides the perfect campgrounds for these cherished moments. Most grounds are just steps from the region's famous beaches, perfect for swimming and relaxation. Sandy shores provide an ideal spot for families to play, build sandcastles, and dip into crystal-clear waters. From kayaking and paddleboarding to boating and fishing, there are plenty of options to explore.
