The Adirondacks' classic through-paddle — 146 miles from Blue Mountain Lake to the St. Lawrence River, passing through some of the most remote wilderness in the eastern United States. The Raquette links lakes, carries (portages), and river stretches in the traditional Adirondack carry-camp-carry style. Class I–III rapids punctuate long flatwater lake crossings through the heart of the Adirondack Park.

Always check current conditions, scout unfamiliar rapids, and paddle within your skill level.
