TRANSPORTATION MAP
St. Lawrence County Road Map
Although it’s the largest county in New York, highways here are surprisingly spaced out. US-11 cuts across from east to west. NY-37 runs near the Canadian border, shadowing the St. Lawrence River. Southbound routes like NY-3 twist through forests and farmland. It’s big, so our zoom tool below comes in handy.

St. Lawrence County is a huge wedge stretching from the Adirondacks to the Canadian border. It actually looks a bit like one of those hand fans with its wing spread out. The St. Lawrence River forms the entire northern edge. It borders Ontario across the water. It’s close to Vermont just to the east (but doesn’t border it).
