Lake George in New York is about 196 feet (roughly 60 meters) at its deepest point, with an average depth of about 70 feet (around 21 meters).

Quick Scoop

  • Maximum depth: About 196 feet / 60 meters.
  • Average depth: Around 70 feet / 21 meters.
  • Size context: The lake is about 32 miles long and up to 2 miles wide, so depth varies a lot depending on where you are on the lake.

If you were thinking of a different Lake George (such as the shallow Lake George in New South Wales, Australia, which is only a few meters deep when full), the New York one is much deeper by comparison.
