We have been exploring different trails, and I had heard about the 100 Acre Woods before and it sounded like a fun place to check out. This trail is located in Ballston Spa, and is easy to find with Google Maps.
There is a fair amount of parking at the trailhead.
There are also paved multi-use trails along the roads.
There is no trailhead, but there was a map posted where we started the trail.
There were some signs related to the story of Pooh Bear, which I guess was inspired by the name 100 Acre Woods.
The trails are well marked with a variety of trail markers.
The trail crosses a stream, and there was an interesting boardwalk there.
The trail meanders through the woods.
There are plenty of markers along the trails. Perhaps too many at times!
While the trail systems are nice and well maintained, we could hear traffic most of the time that we were on the trail. We also heard cars revving their engines, so I can only assume that people race on the roads around the tech park. The walk here was leisurely, but not particularly special.
You can find a trail map here.

That looks so peaceful and beautiful! I need to write it down in case I’m ever in the area, I definitely want to go and see it for myself!
I have totally fallen in love with family hikes on the trails near us this past year. Such a great way to clear your head, get in some family time and exercise!! This looks like a good one!
This looks like a beautiful trail. It’s a shame you can still hear traffic though. That would kill the peaceful vibe for me.
That is an honest review and might be a little close to traffic for a hike. I will consider for some of the others you have shown us
This is great! I wish I knew about this when I went to college in Albany!

My youngest would love to visit this place! It looks like an adventure!
I love the name. I would love to go here and take in all the peace and quiet. Some days just call for nature.
This looks like a peaceful and beautiful walk. I love the nod to Winnie the Pooh too, as the name reminded me of it also!
My family loves to discover new trails especially during the warm season! This one is on our next to do list!

Sounds cool. This surely is a nice trail to check out when traveling to Malta, NY. Definitely I add it to my bucket list when taking road trip around the US.
I miss traveling and reading travel blogs and experiences are one that makes me sane. I wish I could go back to travel again.
The place looks really amazing! I would love to take the kids to some adventure this weekend!
