Hiking in Lake County can be fun and historical. Fun… because the fresh air of our forests and rustic footpaths stir up the imagination and energize the spirit. Both the athlete and nature lover benefit from their hiking experiences here. Historical….because of the North Country National Scenic Trail, often referred to as the North Country Trail (NTC), which begins in New York and ends in North Dakota. This trail, second only to the Appalachian Trail, threads itself throughout our beautiful county. Each year, the North County Trail lure adventures from around the world and within the United States. Locals hit the trails often for exercise, bird & wildlife watching or to just step back and drink in all that nature has to offer.

Whether you want to enjoy a quiet walk in the woods or are an experienced backpacker, Lake County hiking offers something for everyone.
