The Keene Valley Lookout at Adirondack Park in Keene, New York is a quick and easy 0.1-mile out-and-back walk to a lookout point located off of NY-73 that gives visitors a beautiful view into the High Peaks Wilderness with views of mountains like Owls Head, Blueberry Mountain, Pitchoff Mountain, and Cascade Mountain.

This is not a hike and is barely even a walk, it's just a roadside point-of-interest along NY-73 that's well-worth stopping at for a nice view of the mountains.

Before you leave...

MyHikes is an indie web platform aimed to make exploring public trails easier for everyone. The site has no investors and is owned and operated by one person, Dave Miller (Founder & Admin). As the Founder, main contributor, and doer-of-all-things for MyHikes, I share my trips with over-detailed write-ups for fun on a volunteer basis and I believe that public trail information should be available to everyone.

It takes a lot of time 🕦, money 💰, and effort (including espresso shots ☕) to run MyHikes, including hiking , mapping , writing , and publishing new trails with high-quality content... along with building new features, moderating, site maintainance, and app development for iOS and Android . I simply ask that if you find MyHikes' trail guides helpful to please consider becoming a Supporter to help keep the site, iOS, and Android apps available to everyone.

Supporters unlock website and in-app perks with a one-time payment of $25 (you renew) 😎👍. Or you can simply make a Donation of your choice without a MyHikes user account. Otherwise, telling your friends about MyHikes is the next-best thing - both quick and free 🎉

Thanks for visiting MyHikes and have a great hike!️
