Lake Champlain Region and the ADK Coast
Dramatic water views and rolling hills make this region of the Adirondack Park genuinely spectacular.
Sometimes referred to as the Adirondack Coast, the Lake Champlain area is bounded on the east by the shores of 120-mile-long Lake Champlain and the High Peaks region to the west.
Visitors can pursue myriad outdoor recreational activities on the water and land. The area is steeped in history and includes important sites from the French and Indian and American Revolutionary Wars. The famed Ausable Chasm, The Grand Canyon of the Adirondacks, is in the Lake Champlain region. The surrounding landscape is known for its rich agricultural heritage, and the famous Adirondack mountain range, known as the High Peaks, is close by.
Villages and towns include:
Crown Point

Lake Champlain even has its own monster, Champ.
