Shelving Rocks Road Trail Access

Shelving Rock Road provides access to multiple trailheads and nine designated parking areas serving the popular Shelving Rock area on Lake George's eastern shore.

The road leads to Shelving Rock Falls (an easy waterside hike with a stony pool) and Shelving Rock Mountain (a moderate 3. 4-mile round trip with lake views), plus hand launches for paddling access to Lake George and nearby ponds.

Note that Shelving Rock Road is narrow, steep, and curvy in sections with some precipitous drop-offs, requiring cautious driving.
