Adirondack Experience

The Museum on Blue Mountain Lake

A Warm Adirondack Welcome! ADKX has a season full of exciting and uniquely Adirondack activities for you and your family to enjoy! Come visit us in the heart of the Adirondacks for a truly unique experience. With more than 20 buildings nestled across 120 acres overlooking Blue Mountain Lake, our open-air campus offers everyone something to do. Step into the rich history of this region as you row an authentic guideboat, break up a logjam, climb a classic ADK fire tower, or enjoy a family-friendly hike to Minnow Pond.
