Cook Mountain Preserve is a 2.9-mi looped trail near Ticonderoga that gives hikers a taste of the Adirondacks. http://www.lglc.org/preserves/cook-mountain/ The Last Great Shoreline Preserve protects roughly 1,925 feet of Lake George’s shoreline and is the most undeveloped area on the eastern shore of Lake George. There are three established trails here you can choose from, totaling 3-miles in length and containing two scenic viewpoints. There is a dock for boats, and kayaks and canoes are welcome on the shore as well! http://www.lglc.org/preserves/last-great-shoreline/ The 46 Adirondack High Peaks (More of a FULL day hike ;) ) https://www.adirondack.net/hiking/high-peaks/
