About the Business

Welcome to Cascade Lake Trailhead, a serene escape nestled in the heart of the Adirondacks at 327 Big Moose Road, Eagle Bay, New York. As a cherished local park, we invite you to explore the breathtaking trails and natural beauty that define this remarkable region.

Before embarking on your adventure, we urge you to remember the importance of preserving this pristine environment. Please adhere to the Leave No Trace principles: plan and prepare by purchasing and studying a physical map, and always be mindful of the impact your visit may have. Consider the efforts of NYS Rangers and medical personnel who tirelessly work to ensure safety—your preparedness can prevent unnecessary rescues.

As you journey through the park, pack out your trash and use a bear canister for primitive camping. Cook away from sleeping areas to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all. Help protect the fragile alpine vegetation by sticking to established trails and consider doing the rock walk when possible. Remember to camp only at designated campsites and avoid setting up camp on or near summits.

Each year, millions are drawn to the Adirondacks' public lands, and we are confident that your time here will leave a lasting impression on your heart, just as it has on ours. To truly Love Your Adirondacks is to protect the lands, waters, and communities we all cherish. We look forward to welcoming you to Cascade Lake Trailhead, where nature's beauty and your adventure await.

Michael Brisson:

"We hiked a bit more than two miles out, to the east end of Cascade Lake, and back. Two days after heavy rain, mid August, the trail was in great shape (kudos to those who maintain it!), albeit some short muddy sections (not hard to skirt)."

"The actal trailhead parking extends this to about 6.3 miles in total. It's located about a quarter mile further up Big Moose Rd. We both clocked it, and the 5 miles is inaccurate if you count from the start. Trail is very wide except the far end of the lake it gets a little narrow and tricky. Never difficult. If you go clockwise at the split around the lake you will be rewarded with closeup views around the lake early on. There's also an old girl scout camp remnants that have a large open grass area for free camping if you choose (complete with firepit). The halfway point has a nice small waterfalls before heading back. The other side of the Cascade Lake trail, you cannot see the lake unless you go way off trail as it meanders far away from the lake. Overall a fun & easy trail, just watch out for a LOT of horse droppings, as they use some of the trail for horsebacking. It took us 4hrs, but that's factoring in time spent enjoying the fall foliage, the camp, and waterfalls."

"Bad hike. Waterfall was not worth the 4 hour round trip, and "a bit muddy in spots" is putting it extremely politely. A local horse jerk brings huge groups of people here and ruins the trail for everyone else. Parts of the trail are entirely made of ground horse droppings."

"Fun trail!!! A bit muddy in spots. 6.25 miles in all. Look out for horse land mines."

"A good hike with a nice waterfall and lake to view. Most of the trail is in good condition. Watch out for the road apples (horses use the trail also)."
