Hiking Mount Jo in the Adirondacks

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Mount Jo is a small mountain that rises up from the shores of Heart Lake near the Adirondak Loj just to the north of the Adirondack High Peaks. A relatively easy hike to the summit offers some amazing views of the Adirondack High Peaks!

The easiest way to reach the summit of Mount Jo is to take the three mile lollipop loop hike from the trailhead and parking area at Adirondak Loj. You’ll ascend via the Short Trail, reach the summit and then descend via the Long Trail and reconnect to the Short Trail just before reaching the shores of Heart Lake. Along the way you’ll climb about 750 feet in elevation to reach the summit and do the loop.

Note that there is a parking fee for this trailhead and it does fill up on very quickly on weekends. If you are staying at the Loj, or in the adjacent campground, this trail is also easily accessible from those facilities.

Important Hiking Considerations:

  1. Weather: Check the weather forecast before your hike and be prepared for changes in conditions. Weather can be unpredictable, so bring appropriate clothing and gear. 
  2. Safety: Some sections of the trail can be steep and rocky, so use caution and watch your footing. It’s also a good idea to hike with a friend or let someone know about your hiking plans. 
  3. Leave No Trace: As with any outdoor activity, remember to follow the principles of Leave No Trace. Pack out any trash, stay on the trail, and be respectful of the natural environment.
