DEC ANNOUNCES SEASONAL CLOSURE OF PROSPECT MOUNTAIN VETERANS MEMORIAL PARKWAY

Parkway in Lake George Will Remain Open with Free Access through Veterans Day, Nov. 11

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) today announced Prospect Mountain Veterans Memorial Parkway will remain open through Veterans Day with free access. The parkway will close for the 2023 season at 4 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 11.

Please note the shuttle to the summit of Prospect Mountain is not available at this time. Admission fees to access the highway are temporarily waived.

Prospect Mountain Veterans Memorial Parkway climbs 5.5 miles from the entry gate to a parking lot just below the summit. There are three separate overlooks along the parkway—the Narrows, Lake George, and Eagle's Eye—from which to enjoy the scenery of the Adirondack Mountains and Lake George.
