Tips

Rensselaer Lake, nestled in Albany's Pine Bush Preserve, is a beautiful 35-acre spot. Once the city's first water source, there are lovely surrounding trails to explore and several docks, perfect for a place to sit and enjoy the shoreline views. While you're here, you'll likely see turtles and herons who call this area home.
