The Avenue of the Pines is the name of both a road and a paved trail that runs next to it in the Saratoga Spa State Park. Maintained by The Gideon Putnam, a luxury hotel and resort, this trail is groomed in the winter for snow-shoers and Nordic skiers for year-round enjoyment. This flat, scenic section of trail is lined with tall pine trees and is an amazing spot for photographs no matter the time of year.

Orenda Spring

Highlight • Natural Monument

Orenda Spring is an incredible mineral spring located on the northern end of Saratoga Spa State park. The high concentration of minerals in the water created a massive, hard tufa that the trail wraps around and water cascades over. This unique spot is a must see when visiting the park. There is a small, covered well where you can drink the water from this spring near by. While the indigenous people of this area have visited these springs for centuries, in the 19th-century the waters became known for their healing properties and people came from around the world to bathe in and drink them, as well as to admire unique geological features like the enormous Orenda Spring tufa.

Hall of Springs

Highlight • Monument

The cornerstone for this beautiful building was laid July 12, 1933 and marked the beginning of the New Spa's development. The New Spa was the name for an early 20th-century project to develop bath houses, research facilities and a drink hall — the Hall of Springs — in this already world-famous area. People from across the country came to drink and bathe in the natural mineral spring waters. Today, the well-preserved Hall of Springs serves as a restaurant and event venue. Across the lawn over the reflecting pool is a sister building that currently houses the Saratoga Performing Arts Center, which has been the summer home of the Philadelphia Orchestra and New York City Ballet since 1966.
