Pennesseewassee (Norway) Lake
Norway Lake spans 922 acres just west of the town of Norway, with a maximum depth of 48 feet. Accessible from Route 117, the lake is five miles long and about a half mile wide. At the western end, Pennesseewassee Park features a boat launch, picnic area, and a recently upgraded playground, thanks to a generous grant from New Balance. The eastern shore offers stunning sunset views, and many enjoy kayaking at sunset while watching the loons.
