Convenient Transportation to the Trailhead

In the Adirondacks and the Lake Placid area in particular, hiking is a beautiful and fulfilling activity that many people enjoy. Due to the popularity of this activity, especially on weekends and when fall color brightens the landscape, parking lots at and near trailheads can fill up quickly. The hiker shuttle route offers easy parking and convenient transportation.

Route and Schedule

Town of Keene Hiker Shuttle

Also known as the Garden Shuttle, the Town of Keen Hiker Shuttle will transport hikers from Marcy Field to The Garden Parking Lot on Saturdays and Sundays from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. through Indigenous Peoples' Day weekend. Pickup will be in the southwest corner of Marcy Field on Airport Road.

The cost for a round-trip ride on the shuttle is $10 USD ($13 Canadian). The fee collected goes to paying for road and parking lot maintenance, porta-potties, and staffing.

Some of the hikes accessible from this shuttle are:

Why take the shuttle?

Why not? There are several reasons to take the shuttle and they're all fantastic.

  • It's better for the environment! Fewer cars on the road means less pollution and better, cleaner air. That means better hiking and a healthier, happier experience for all.
  • Skip the worry about parking. The Adirondacks are much adored and parking lots at trailheads can get crowded. This way, there's no worry!
  • Save your money! By saving on gas, you can enjoy a less expensive day out.
  • You can relax. When someone else does the driving, you can enjoy the stunning scenery.
