If museums are your thing, you cannot miss this museum in the Adirondacks.

At the Adirondack Experience Museum, you can explore the history of fire towers and logging, learn about the environmental and social impacts of the logging industry on the mountains, and take a deep dive into the history, art, and culture of the region.

Plus, it's situated right on the shores of Blue Mountain Lake, so you can enjoy stunning views of the water and surrounding mountains while you explore the museum.

This museum is generally open from late May through mid-October.

It's best to buy your ticket online in advance (grab them here). Your ticket is good for the entire day and can be purchased up until 3pm each day for same day entry. However, if you like history you can easily spend most of the day here, so plan accordingly.
