This aptly-named mountain is the first summit on the East Trail to Rocky Peak and Giant at 1.9 miles from Rt. 9.

Giant is a shortened name for the peak that was originally called Giant of the Valley, and that's exactly what it is — a huge landmass that towers over Keene Valley and the surrounding lowlands.

For a short but sweet walk in the wilderness, check out the Grizzle Ocean loop in the Pharaoh Lake Wilderness Area.

This is a wonderful open peak with a restored firetower that can be climbed, even though the tower is not needed for some of the best views in the High Peaks.

Owl Head Lookout is a true hidden gem, and should not be overlooked! In any season, but especially in fall, the views of the sweeping forest will absolutely take your breath away. 

Hiking Rocky Peak Ridge is the 20th highest peak in the Adirondacks at 4,420 feet in elevation. It offers outstanding views from its summit, and is usually less-crowded than neighboring Giant.

Located at the northern end of Lake George, Rogers Rock DEC State Campground is a very popular campground for families and visitors! Campers can enjoy a guarded swimming beach, cycling, fishing, boating, and hiking.
