06-2025 Demarest Kill County Park in Hight rate 5 location for tourist in New City, NY, USAOld Iron Springs - Ballston Spa Ryan Mazierski: The Old Iron Springs is a nice historic and recreational spot in Ballston Spa, NY. Here you can view the historic spring, some nice gardens, relax, and enjoy a fitness trail. There is also a stage for musical performances.
The Jim Tedisco fitness trail is a .5 mile long. It is a mostly flat and easy trail to walk. You get nice views of the woods and of the city of Ballston Spa. From the Iron Springs the trail will end on Prospect Street, near the Factory restaurant.
Check this nice little spot out, youll find it enjoyable.
Dakota Ridge Farm, LLC - Ballston Spa laura bellinger: What a wonderful place! We hiked with llamas Maggie and Jade. Our hosts were kind, knowledgeable, and generous. The cats zipped around and we visited with the horses. Totally recommend.
Waterfront Park - Saratoga Springs Jeff Dur: This is a nice park with beautiful lake view. You will enjoy the view and you will find picnic tables around to rest or have a quick picnic. I didnt see grills there so I dont think this is an option if you are considering that.
There is a small lake beach where I saw kids enjoying water with adult supervision, nice entry for kayak and paddles.
Overall good experience for family.
Woods Hollow Nature Preserve - Ballston Spa Matthew Jones: A nice, small network of trails with a little bit of elevation gain, but not enough to make much of a difference between these trails and completely flat trails. There are multiple interesting landmarks throughout the trails, including a reservoir, lupine fields (an essential plant for the survival of the critically imperiled karner blue butterfly endemic to the Northeast and Great Lakes), a ravine, and others. The trails are wide and generally well-maintained, however, the trail markers could be better. Instead of using plastic reflective markers, they use colored spray paint on the trees. This makes the trail markers easy to miss, although getting lost in these woods isnβt much of a worry given that walking a few minutes in any direction will bring you to a road. There are some wooden signs at certain forks in the trail, but the signs are a bit dilapidated and hard to read.
Brookside Museum - Ballston Spa Anastasiya Keegan: A small local museum. I was here for the first time. Two small rooms with artifacts, a childrens room. Friendly staff. I would like to see modern exhibitions, perhaps this is happening, but we did not see them. Admission is free
Saratoga Spa State Park - Saratoga Springs Eric Haffner: Stayed at the Gideon Putnam hotel for a conference and had the opportunity to walk the park on more than one occasion. Well-shaded trails throughout and plenty of picnic and gathering areas. I was impressed with the retro feel of Gideon Putnam and the park in general.
Congress Park - Saratoga Springs Amanda Howles: Love taking my dog for a walk here. Its beautiful any time of year, especially all the architecture. Many views and benches to take a seat. Fresh spring water to drink and cameras hidden up on the bird houses make you feel secure. Its also a great place to go on a run with a variety of loops and trails!
Saratoga National Historical Park - Stillwater John Kettlewell: Wonderful walks with interesting history to read about along the way. Plus the drive around the park is nice if you dont want to walk, and its a nice bike ride too. Good dog walking as well. Beautiful views out over the Hudson River valley.
