Nordic Walking in historic Saratoga Spa State Park






Nordic Walking in Saratoga Spa State Park is like taking a step back in time.


The park is full of natural springs and geysers. There are many miles of walking trails that wind through the park,along the river and past many springs and geysers.
"By the mid 1800’s bathing in the mineral waters had become a popular health treatment with several bathhouses in operation in Saratoga Springs. Saratoga had become the seasonal “Watering Hole” for the rich and famous, and was referred to as “The Queen of Spas.”
Saratoga Springs is also famous for it's horse-racing tack.
