Paul Smith's Center

The Paul Smith's center opened in 1989. Located on approximately 2,700 acres (11 km2) near Paul Smith's College, the PSIC has approximately six miles of interpretive trails and eight miles (13 km) of backcountry trails. Throughout the property visitors will encounter every habitat type found in the Adirondack Park except alpine. Historically, each spring the center hosts the Great Adirondack Birding Festival. Throughout the year visitors can partake of guided interpretive walks, regular outdoor activities, naturalist-led canoe paddles on Barnum Pond, and assorted lectures and slide presentations. In the winter the trails are open for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing.
