St. Regis Canoe Area

The St. Regis Canoe Area is the only designated canoe area in New York state, and with 18,000 acres of 58 ponds, the area is a paddlers' dream.

The area is noted for its clear spring-fed ponds, short canoe carries and tranquil beauty. The entire area is closed to all motorized forms of transportation so the best way to enjoy all of the ponds is by use of a pack canoe, ultra lightweight canoes that can be easily transported between the many waterways linked by "carries."
