Very easy and delightful walk. Looking up at the Olympic ski jumps can make you catch your breath!

Beautiful spot near the ski jump complex w/some exhibits abt John Brown, his burial ground & homestead.
Nice flat hiking trail around the farm's perimeter, beautiful in the winter, large field, mountain views, ski jump views. Dog friendly.
The guide is really interesting and knowledge! The farm is beautifully preserved and a great hiking place for families, children and dogs. It is really genuine with no commercialization
This is a very important site to visit if you want to know more about our country's history. A compelling story of a man committed to making men free. Please go.
We all know the song but probably are not so familiar with the history of John Brown and the North Star Underground Railroad. An added benefit of visiting John Brown's Farm is a realization of just how hard it must have been to scratch out a living in the Adirondacks.
The docent at the John Brown Historic Site was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. House had a variety of period pieces. Cemetery was interesting. Very inexpensive to visit. $2.00 per adult. $1.00 per senior.
Visited the site while in the area last week. We had an excellent tour of the home by a very knowledgeable guide. Very interesting and informative. Well maintained grounds. I thought it was an interesting contrast being able to see the ski jumps and didn't find them to be distracting as they are some distance away.
After reading so much about John Brown it was very exciting for me to visit his farm, reputed to have been his favorite place. It's a beautiful spot with a magnificent view of the Adirondack Mountains.
A must for history buffs of course, but it seemed very secluded here compared with the fifty or more cars parked along the roads at the trail heads. Too bad the olympic ski jumps intrude on the scene.
