One of the most vibrant and beautiful towns in New York State, Queensbury surrounds the city of Glens Falls on three sides. Located at the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains in Warren County on the shores of Lake George, Queensbury was once a popular hunting and fishing area for the Iroquois. The many local lakes, like Glen Lake, offer easy access for swimming, canoeing and boating. Queensbury is notable for its spectacular scenery. Bikers take to the Warren County Bike Path which runs from Lake George through Queensbury to Glens Falls. Grabbing shoppers’ attention are the town’s numerous buying options all within a short travel distance, be they malls, boutiques or country stores. Queensbury offers many wonderful recreation activities and fabulous scenery through its numerous parks, including Feeder Canal Park, Freedom Park, Glen Lake Canoe Launch and Hudson River Park, which offers a free boat launch.
The city is the home to many businesses in a variety of industries. Queensbury has become a great source for the medical device manufacturing industry which has a significant presence in the town. Two of Queensbury’s older structures, the Sanford House and Asa Stower House are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Great Escape & Splashwater Kingdom, a Six Flags theme park, is located in northwest Queensbury while West Mountain, a downhill and cross-country skiing area, is located in the southwestern part of town.
