The Glen

Central Adirondack Trail, State Rt. 28, in Warren County

The Glen is on the Hudson River between Warrensburg and North Creek.

The Glen is probably best known to local residents as the place where spectacular ice jams can be seen on the Hudson River during the spring thaw; it is an awesome sight.

This is one of many friendly communities along the Central Adirondack Trail Scenic Byway that provide the opportunity for an enjoyable walk, and to learn more about the region. The 153-mile Central Adirondack Trail forms the shape of a crescent, originating in the fertile lowland areas surrounding the cities of Glens Falls and Rome, and winding through the south-central portion of the Adirondack Park. The Hudson River on the eastern end and the Erie Canal on the west are the gateways to many scenic lakes and mountain streams that are the distinguishing geographic features along much of this scenic byway.
