Orenda Spring is an incredible mineral spring located on the northern end of Saratoga Spa State park. The high concentration of minerals in the water created a massive, hard tufa that the trail wraps around and water cascades over. This unique spot is a must see when visiting the park. There is a small, covered well where you can drink the water from this spring near by. While the indigenous people of this area have visited these springs for centuries, in the 19th-century the waters became known for their healing properties and people came from around the world to bathe in and drink them, as well as to admire unique geological features like the enormous Orenda Spring tufa.
