About Cranberry Lake
Cranberry Lake lies in St. Lawrence County in the western Adirondacks, the third-largest lake entirely within the Adirondack Park and one of the wildest, since most of its shoreline is state forest preserve rather than camps. The hamlet of Cranberry Lake, part of the town of Clifton, sits on the north shore along Route 3; Wanakena, an old lumber-company town turned Ranger School campus, is on the south side. The lake and its islands are ringed by the Cranberry Lake 50, a fifty-mile hiking loop through ponds and second-growth forest, and paddlers still follow much of the same water the old logging drives once used.
