Adirondack Hiking Photography Group

The Graphite Range Community Forest features over 5 miles of trails for hiking and biking. The trails guide visitors through the preserve showcasing historic foundations and hidden caves. Lets see what we can photograph in this shoulder season. Please wear something orange or pink as this is hunting season.

Tickets must be purchased for 27.00 for 5pm time slot. They go quick so purchase soon. The bookstore and cafe will be open. Come be transported into a magical landscape where stunning scenic elements, dramatic lighting, and a beautiful musical score evoke wonder and awaken the imagination. Drawing inspiration from the natural world of The Mount, NightWood is a unique sound and light immersion that takes visitors on a 1-mile illuminated path through the woods and gardens of Edith Wharton’s Gilded Age Estate.
This year, discover a new trail that takes you deeper into the woods, plus several new encounters that explores the lifecycle of the trees. It is a fantastical experience to delight all ages! Children 12 and under are free.
