Tupper Lake, NY, nicknamed "The Crossroads of the
Adirondacks," is a bustling Adirondack tourist
village of about 5,000 year-round residents. Steeped in
the tradition of the hunting, fishing, lumbering and
logging trades, Tupper Lake is today a popular
destination for tourists, photographers and outdoor
enthusiasts. The village of Tupper Lake, located in the
Franklin County town of Altamont, is considered one of
three primary destinations (along with Saranac Lake and
Lake Placid) known as the Tri-Lakes region of the
northern Adirondack Mountains. State Routes 3 and 30 are
the primary arteries into Tupper Lake from the nearby
communities of Saranac Lake, Long Lake and Paul Smiths,
and the Star Lake-Cranberry Lake region.
Visitors flock to the village each July for an annual
Tupper Lake Woodsmen's Days competition, considered to
be the largest event of its kind in New York State. The
annual Tupper Lake Tin Man Triathlon is also a popular
event for athletes and spectators alike. But year-round,
Tupper Lake is a peaceful retreat amidst the virgin
pines and hardwoods, replete with camping, hunting,
fishing, swimming and boating during warmer months;
colorful panoramic views of autumn leaves; skiing,
snowshoeing, snowmobiling and other winter activities;
and nature's majestic rebirth every spring.
Tupper Lake is a four-seasons Adirondack getaway!
