Cobble Lookout is the perfect hike for those who who want to experience the stunning views of the Northern Adirondack Mountains, without having to exert too much effort. In fact, the views at the end of this hike are so breathtaking, that it's almost hard to believe how little effort it takes to get there.
This 1.3 mile trail gently winds its way through Wilmington Wild Forest before reaching an overlook with unobstructed views of Whiteface, Esther, and several other Adirondack High Peaks looming in the distance. Visit in late September to catch one of the most brilliant fall foliage displays in Upstate New York.
