Upper Saranac Lake

Upper Saranac is consider by many, one of the best boating lakes in the Adirondacks with
many islands and panoramic mountain views. Saranac is also home to many great camps,
numerous college and youth camps and famous resorts including The Wawbeek and The Point. Upper Saranac is 7.5 miles long with a maxium width of about 1.5 miles and features 37 miles of breath taking shoreline with views of the distant high peaks. It also features 20 primitive campsites available on a first come, first serve basis.

Access by boat from the campground at Fish Creek (see Square Pond map center) is via
Fish Creek Ponds and the creek into Fish Creek Bay on the middle west side of Upper Saranac.
