Geyser Trail — Attraction in City of Saratoga Springs

The Geyser Creek Trail is a must see at the Park. The fast moving creek is unique in that it carries still and mineral water from several springs, releasing minerals through evaporation, while providing unique watershed habitat for numerous species. The Geyser spring and the Orenda spring that empty into the Creek are natural wonders that alone make the Park worth a visit.

Please enjoy, appreciate, and respect this place, for there is no other like it on the East Coast. If you found this a review helpful,...

Lastly, bring some empty clean one gallon water bottles if you want some "really good" natural spring water...
