Guided Sensory Snowshoe Walk with Adirondack River Walking
Experience the enchanting beauty of a winter forest in the Adirondacks. Immerse yourself in nature's sights, sounds, scents, and textures. Indulge in a two-hour guided snowshoe walk on the gentle trails surrounding The Wild Center.
Sensory Snowshoeing is a winter version of the wellness practice of Forest Bathing, originally translated from the Japanese Shinrin-Yoku. It means immersing your senses in the natural atmosphere.
Suzanne Weirich, a certified Forest Therapy Guide, will lead the group on this relaxing journey, inviting participants to recover from the stress of daily life. Research studies have shown that it can lower blood pressure and levels of the stress hormone cortisol and improve our immune system’s ability to fight infection.
The Wild Center will provide snowshoes free of cost.

A perfect gift for Adirondack lovers, nature enthusiasts, and anyone who believes “Forever Wild” is more than a motto—it’s a way of life.
In the Adirondack Mountains, every summit tells a story. Stories of persistence, breathtaking views, and a connection to nature so profound it’s almost mythical. This shirt doesn’t just celebrate the 46 High Peaks; it embodies them.
Soft-washed and garment-dyed, the fabric feels like a well-worn trail map—comfortably familiar yet sturdy enough for any adventure. The relaxed fit lets you move easily, whether you're scaling Colden or savoring a fireside evening. Double-needle stitching ensures it’s as resilient as the trails themselves, while the tubular design holds its shape through time, much like the enduring peaks it honors.
It's available in six hues inspired by Adirondack landscapes: Earthy Espresso, High Peaks Pepper, Evergreen Moss, Midnight Blue, Sunset Grape, and Autumn Ember Chili.
Try it on, and you’re not just wearing a T-shirt—you’re carrying the spirit of the High Peaks, ready to inspire your next trek or remind you of the ones you’ve conquered. Perfect for the 46er at heart—or anyone dreaming of their own Adirondack ascent.
Because adventure doesn’t stop when you leave the trail.

You’ve wandered through the misty pines at dawn, the echo of a distant loon calling across the lake. You’re not one for the ordinary—your gear, like your adventures, must be timeless. Enter the Adirondack Loon Cap.
Crafted from 100% cotton twill, this is no ordinary cap. It’s the kind you throw on for a day of rugged escapades or an afternoon stroll by the water's edge. Its worn-in look whispers of trails yet to be explored.
The low profile hugs the contours of your head just right, while the D-ring closure with a self-fabric hideaway strap ensures an impeccable fit—no matter how wild the wind or how far the journey.
Protection from the sun? Naturally. But more than that, it’s about wearing something that feels like it’s always been part of your story.

It’s early morning, and the mist hovers above the glassy surface of your favorite Adirondack lake, undisturbed but for the rhythmic dip of your paddle. The only sound is the gentle ripple of water breaking against your canoe. The air is crisp, carrying the scent of pine and the promise of another perfect day in the Adirondacks. Your worries are left ashore, traded for the serenity that only paddling these waters can provide.
You’re not just wearing any shirt. You’re donning an invitation to adventure, to explore the thousand lakes and secret inlets of the North Country.
Our Adirondack Paddler’s Long-Sleeve Tee is made of the softest cotton. It's perfect for layering or wearing on its own. It’s designed for those who know the joy of a paddling in the Adirondacks, who’ve felt the thrill of a canoe gliding silently through mirror-still waters.
This ultra-cotton long-sleeve tee is perfect for Adirondack paddlers of all kinds—canoers, kayakers, SUPs, guide boaters and more. It is a clear comfort winner in any season.
There are no side seams for a relaxed fit. The shoulders are taped for improved durability. We love that the cotton used for these shirts is environmentally friendly.
Check the size chart; friends and family tell us this long-sleeved tee may run a little small.
