The Adirondack Scenic Railroad offers a unique and relaxing way to experience the beauty of Central New York and the Adirondack region. Departing from Utica and traveling through scenic landscapes toward Old Forge and beyond, these historic train rides are an easy day trip from Kayuta Lake Campground & Marina and a favorite attraction for families, couples, and train enthusiasts.
Adirondack Scenic Railroad excursions feature restored vintage railcars that travel through forests, rivers, and mountain scenery. Depending on the season, trips may include narrated sightseeing rides, special themed excursions, or fall foliage journeys.
The experience offers a slower pace, allowing passengers to sit back and enjoy the changing scenery from the comfort of the train.
After your railroad adventure, return to Kayuta Lake Campground & Marina to relax and unwind. Located approximately 30 minutes from the Utica station, the campground offers cabins, RV sites, tent camping, lake access, a heated swimming pool, and a peaceful natural setting. Enjoy a scenic journey by day and tranquil lakeside evenings back at camp.
Experience the Adirondacks from the rails, then unwind lakeside at Kayuta Lake Campground & Marina for a relaxing and memorable getaway.
