Bald Mountain is a short but fun hiking destination in Old Forge, NY. It's a good taste of what the Adirondacks have to offer, but with a speedy reward at the summit. Not only is there amazing views, but there is a firetower on top that you can climb to gain additional elevation and experience a true 360 view.
At 2 miles roundtrip with just under 500' elevation gain, it's a great trail for even beginning to moderate hikers. There are slides, scrambles, and ridges to keep you literally on your toes to the summit.
I have the added benefit of being right down the road working at my summer job! So on a beautiful evening off I headed down to the trailhead and added this one to my list.
If you are in the area and have about an hour to kill, I highly recommend this one!!
