A Mindfulness Attraction

at Adirondack Labyrinth


An Upstate New York Journey:

The Adirondack Labyrinth will close for the winter on Monday, October 28. This is your last day to walk until May, 2025!

 

Experience uplifting tranquility. Immerse yourself in a walking meditation amidst the beauty of the southern Adirondack Mountains. This mindfulness attraction is ideal for individuals, small groups, the curious, and anyone looking for a unique, relaxing experience.


This 70-foot outdoor labyrinth is a safe place for walkers to leave politics, identities, and issues aside to come rest and return to their lives replenished and centered. Guests are invited to book a free walk, but we strongly recommend a guided walk with meditation and intention-setting for those new to the labyrinth experience to get the most out of your time here.


If you are seeking to bring a small group in 2024, please send an email to labyrinth@asaadirondack.com.

“As I walked, I didn’t feel religious in a formal sense, but I did feel the magnitude of the universe. Looking at my feet surrounded by tiny pebbles and stopping to stare at the huge sky, clouds, and woods, I seemed ever so small and unimportant. I remembered a Latin phrase driven into my mind as a 20-year-old in a Jesuit college: ‘Agere sequitur esse,’ or ‘actions follow from one's essence.’ The peacefulness of your labyrinth is indeed the peaceful essence of nature.”


- Bob F., Queensbury, NY

“I got everything I hoped to receive out of the New Moon Walk; I felt out of kilter and rebalanced. I also came back for the Full Moon Walk and brought my sister. The moon is not just something to look at; it's something to experience. It was informational and enlightening to hear what Christine shared. She is very conscious of what she is doing, kind, and generous. I loved gathering with other people and sharing experiences in a safe, wonderful place. I can't wait to go back.”


- Marcia A, Amsterdam, NY

"What a truly amazing place! This hallowed ground will create an immeasurable ripple effect of harmony amongst humanity globally. A lifetime memorable experience for all who visit... I'm so truly grateful for the time I was granted there & the elevated energy I carried with me on my way!"


Erik K. - Phoenix, AZ

What Adirondack Labyrinth visitors are saying

FIRST WALK


First view takes my breath away,

Fills me with awe and wonder

At the power of your presence,

Anchoring heaven and earth

In your winding spirals of stones.


I walk slowly, steadily, step by step

Disoriented by the twists and turns

Until I surrender to the path I am on,

Knowing it will take me to the Center of it All.


And suddenly, I am Here.

There. Everywhere.


Rooted to the earth,

Hands outstretched to the sky.


- MaryAnn Morrison

“The Adirondack Labyrinth is the largest and most beautiful I have experienced. To be there walking along side my 88-year-old father is a gift I will treasure for the rest of my life. I have also had the honor to walk another labyrinth designed by Tony Christie in Cork, Ireland. It’s a beautiful experience, if you allow it. The peace that comes can be life-changing. This is a must-see and do. The area is serene in a way you can only experience in the Adirondacks!"


~ Michele, Old Forge, NY/Erie, CO

"Within minutes, you feel your energy change and you can’t help but smile and feel the positive energy. You listen to the birds, the wind, and the sound of the busy beavers working. You smell the sweet air. I drifted into a deep meditation and become one with myself and nature. At the end of my journey, I had a new feeling of replenishment. I found many answers I have needed for a while now. It truly is a beautiful place to be. I can’t wait to get back to it."


~ Jeff, West Creek, NJ

INNER PEACE

Plan Your Day & Play in North Creek!

The Adirondack Mountains have long been a refuge for those seeking healing. In this still-pristine wilderness one can connect with nature, find inner peace, play, and embark on a pilgrimage of healing and self-discovery. 


Booking a contemplative walk on the Adirondack Labyrinth is the perfect companion for a day of exploration and play around Gore Ski Area and North Creek. Plan on being at the labyrinth for about an hour for a self-guided tour. Around your walk build shopping at Main Street's many adorable shops, add another excursion like Rev Rail or the Gondola at Gore, or expand into a glassblowing experience. Or, pick up a picnic lunch from Izzy's and extend your relaxation time here at our picnic area.

A Visitor Attraction Unlike Anything Else

Walking the labyrinth is an ancient practice of unknown origins. Labyrinth designs have been found across continents and cultures dating back 4,000 years including the earliest known in India and coins from ancient Crete.


Modern scholars know that labyrinths are based on sacred geometry and perfect ratios. Unlike a maze, a labyrinth has a single path into the center and back out. The Adirondack Labyrinth, a larger replica of the medieval 11-circuit labyrinth found in the Chartres Cathedral of France, built around 1203 AD, awaits your arrival.

During a long illness that began at the end of 2019, our Founder Christine Powers saw pictures of a labyrinth in the grasslands of Saskatchewan over a Zoom call and knew instantly that Asa Adirondack must have a labyrinth where people could come and experience themselves, the land, and each other in new ways. We laid the last field stone in May 2024!

YEARS IN THE MAKING

Envisioning Peace

270,000

POUNDS OF STONE

Strong Foundations

Volunteers spanning ages 18 to 86 from across the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, and Ireland have traveled here to help build the labyrinth over the past two years. This amazing labor of love includes over 3,000 volunteer hours donated to building this magnificent labyrinth.

Benefits of Walking a Labyrinth

For some, the winding design leads to focus and reflection, where the mind drops the chatter and becomes quiet. Others find solace in the rhythmic cadence of each step. Many walkers feel their bodies anchor to the moment, grounded in a state of mindfulness.


Some just find it a nice walk, and that's cool too! Whatever you "feel" (or don't feel), studies show that walking a labyrinth balances the brain's hemispheres, calms the nervous system, lowers heart rate and blood pressure, and enhances a sense of well-being. What are you waiting for?

Global Healing & Peace: Seventh Legacy Labyrinth in the World

The Adirondack Labyrinth is honored to be the Seventh Legacy Labyrinth in the world. Envisioned by Asa Adirondacks’ founder Christine Powers, and designed by world-renowned labyrinth expert Tony Ærcyus Christie of Ireland, the labyrinth was built between 2021 and 2023 by Larry Powers and almost 50 volunteers amassing over 3000 volunteer hours so far.


Legacy Labyrinths are catalysts for peace and healing, and are all energetically connected. The Adirondack Labyrinth is dedicated with the spirit of connection and community; when you walk this labyrinth with intention, that intention is received by all the Legacy Labyrinths dotted across the globe. There are eight Legacy Labyrinths located in four countries, with more in the planning stages.


The Adirondack Labyrinth honors all who walk this land, past, present and future.
