The North Country National Scenic Trail stretches 4,600 miles through seven states as a premier hiking path that traverses, interprets, and celebrates the natural, historic, cultural, and ecological landscapes of America’s north country. Administered by the National Park Service with the North Country Trail Association through partnerships with local, state, and federal organizations and private landowners, it runs west from the shores of Lake Champlain at Historic Crown Point, New York, through the Adirondacks, along scenic canals in Central New York, and through the Finger Lakes before crossing the northern Great Plains and ending at Lake Sakakawea State Park, North Dakota. At Crown Point State Historic Site, the trail passes the remains of two 18th century forts, one French and one British, that guarded the entrance to Lake Champlain during the French and Indian and Revolutionary Wars.
