Christened "the best of its kind in the world," by the New York Times, The Adirondack Experience, The Museum on Blue Mountain Lake (formerly the Adirondack Museum) is a vast campus featuring exhibitions in 24 modern galleries and historic buildings from around the park. 


Since 1957, the Adirondack Experience collection has expanded to include artifacts representing community life from all over the Adirondack region ranging from boating, to logging, to Native American arts.


2017 marked the opening of the museum's most exciting new exhibition in the institution’s history: “Life in the Adirondacks,” a 19,000-square-foot interactive experience serves as every visitor’s starting point. It will combine the latest digital technology with real hands-on experiences to bring the spirit of adventure and breathtaking natural beauty of the Adirondacks to life.


And with exciting daily hands-on activities and special events like the Rustic Furniture Fair, Cabin Fever Sunday lectures in the winter and hikes to historic Minnow Pond and more, this museum is a "Adirondack must-see" history attraction.
