Raquette Lake

Raquette Lake lies within the confines of Long Lake, and like many New York hamlets, is named after the lake that rests on its doorstep. It is a place of extreme beauty, where many people come to enjoy the peace and quiet of the natural world, away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Scenic walks around the water’s edge are a popular pastime, but you can head out to Long Lake to enjoy a range of water-based activities. Death Falls has hiking trails that lead up to the trickling waters, which also provides stunning views of the landscape. Pigeon Lake Wilderness is filled with other small ponds and lakes, which you can hike between as you take in the world around you.
