Waiontha Mountain is a modest upland landscape in the Town of Springfield in Central New York, east of Richfield Springs and north of Allen Lake. In Otsego County, the name refers to a small mountain chain rather than one sharply defined peak. It has two main elevations, with the highest rising to 1,972 feet. Several lakes sit at the mountain’s base, and Wilders Hill lies to the northwest. The place is notable as a local geographic feature whose name applies to the broader ridge-like area instead of a single summit.
