It’s sugaring season in the Adirondacks when maple syrup producers harvest sap. When winter wanes, usually around the beginning of March, we experience warmer days while the nights are still cold, creating ideal conditions and increasing sap flow.
Garnet Hill acknowledges and celebrates this seasonal event with a day of fun snowshoe racing accompanied by delicious maple product sampling.
The Maple Mini Snowshoe Race.
A one-mile entry fun race, the Maple Mini is short and sweet.
First-place racers from every age group will be entered to win a season pass to Garnet Hill for the 2024-25 Season.
The Sugar House Relay.
A 4-mile Relay (2 miles per leg). Teams can be either two or four people.
First-place teams will receive maple syrup from local maple farms, including syrup made from Garnet Hill Maple trees and Cobble Creek Farm.
The first leg of the racecourse starts at The Garnet Hill Outdoor Center and runs to the Sugar House; the second leg begins at the Sugar House and returns to the Outdoor Center.
Pancake brunch at The Bobcat with pure Adirondack Maple Syrup.
