Of course, being outside is what we like to do here in Lake Placid, but it doesn't all have to be rugged, backcountry, High Peak exploration. Our favorite thing about the outdoors here is the variety of things to do!
The Adirondacks are brimming with adventure
There's so much to do. Whether it’s a day hike to an open summit, a snowshoe around John Brown Farm State Historic Site, or a relaxing paddle on Mirror Lake. Solo adventurers, families, couples, retired travelers, and even pets will love the endless opportunities in this Olympic village. Our highest mountains dominate the skyline, beckoning to those adventurous enough to climb them and capturing the imagination of everyone. Winter, summer, spring, and fall, Lake Placid is the perfect place to get out, do, and enjoy the great outdoors.
