TOWN OF CHESTER – Come & Settle In
The Town of Chester,
just 20 minutes north
of Lake George (Northway
exits 25 & 26), offers a
glimpse of the simple
life. Beautiful lakes, small
towns, unique shopping
and dining, and Southern
Adirondack style are in
abundance.
Hike the Chester
Challenge, comprised of
ten local, scenic hiking
and nature trails through
wetlands and nearby
mountains. All skill levels
are welcome. The yearround
trails are great for
snowshoeing as well as a
simple walk in the woods
and traditional hiking.
Thousands of people have
already earned the Chester
Challenge patch and pin.
Sign in at the Chamber
Building on Route 8 at
Dynamite Hill.
A perennial bevy of events
are maintained by various
organizations. Bring
your dog to Woofstock in
June; taste fare from local
restaurants at November’s
Taste of the Tri-Lakes; the
Krazy Downhill Derby
is a signature event in
February; classic car shows,
farmers’ markets, live
performances at the Carol
Theater, and fireworks
occur throughout the
summer months and into
fall (July/August).
