The Lake George Region is Bicycle Friendly<br />

Residents and visitors to the Southern Adirondacks have discovered<br />

some great cycling. The Warren County Bikeway, a 10<br />

foot wide paved and landscaped County bike path was completed<br />

in 1978. This destination bike path begins in Lake George Village’s<br />

Westbrook Park and passes through 10.5 miles of Southern<br />

Adirondack scenery to Queensbury, where it passes over Quaker<br />

Road and links riders to the Feeder Canal System. Combined, the<br />

two bikeway system will offer visitors and residents twenty plus<br />

miles of “destination” bicycle riding opportunities.<br />

As cycling has become more<br />

popular, the Warren County GIS<br />

Program has taken on the goal<br />

of creating a series of hiking and<br />

biking maps for Warren County.<br />

The maps are available for download<br />

on the program’s website (http://warrencountyny.gov/gis/<br />

maps) and on the First Wilderness website (http://www.firstwilderness.com).<br />

Additional maps are added regularly.<br />

In addition, Warren County GIS offers two interactive map<br />

websites, the Community Map (http://gis-2.warrencountyny.<br />

gov/warrencountygis), which includes information on bicycling<br />

and other recreation opportunities throughout the County, and<br />

the First Wilderness Heritage Corridor Story Map (http://gis-2.<br />

warrencountyny.gov/shortlist/), which offers details about a variety<br />

of recreation and cultural opportunities throughout the First<br />

Wilderness region.<br />

Welcome, whether you’ve come for a nice relaxing vacation<br />

or want to discover all the Adirondack region has to offer, what<br />

better way to experience the area than on a bicycle?<br />
