Lake Flower

Highlight • Lake

Nestled in the Adirondack Mountains of Upstate New York, Lake Flower, spanning 300 acres across Franklin and Essex Counties, captivates cyclists along Lake Flower Avenue. Formed by damming the Saranac River in 1827, this scenic lake, initially dubbed Mill Pond, pays homage to Governor Roswell P. Flower. As the sole lake within Saranac Lake village, its serene shores add an alluring charm to cyclists exploring the area.
