The Kayaderosseras Creek Canoe and Kayak Trail is a beautiful 6.5 mile paddle through a diverse semi-rural setting. The Creek takes its name from a Mohawk Indian description meaning the "the land of the beautiful lake of the winding river". The trail is navigable from spring to autumn and offers a relatively mild paddling experience with two opportunities for whitewater when the river runs high. Five access points allow all levels of canoeists and kayakers to choose a paddle for their ability. Traveling east from Kelly Park in Ballston Spa, the Kayaderosseras winds its way into Saratoga Lake. The route provides easy access to Saratoga Lake, Fish Creek, and Lake Lonely for extending paddling trips. Parking, launch and recovery sites are carefully placed and spaced, and the trail is near the major highways of Routes 87, 9 and 50.
