Are you ready to test your mettle?

The Adirondack Canoe Classic — AKA the 90-Miler — is an Adirondack tradition dating back over four decades. Hosted by the Northern Forest Canoe Trail, this annual event takes paddlers from Old Forge to Saranac Lake, the first 90 miles of the Northern Forest Canoe Trail. Registration for the 2026 90-Miler opens on July 1. In the meantime, we encourage you to browse our website to learn more.

Hosted by the Northern Forest Canoe Trail

The Northern Forest Canoe Trail is proud to organize and host the 90-Miler. As a 501c3 nonprofit organization, all proceeds generated by this event are invested back into the Adirondack portions of the canoe trail. This includes stewardship projects that enhance access points, campsites, portages and other trail infrastructure, as well as community programs like Northern Forest Explorers and the NFCT Community Paddle series. By participating in the 90-Miler, you're helping to lift up paddlesports in the Adirondacks and beyond. To learn more about the Northern Forest Canoe Trail, click here.
