Visiting Lake Placid

Visiting Lake Placid for the first time for the FIS Cross-Country World Cup Finals? Welcome! There is so much to do here on the cusp of winter and spring. Find helpful resources for planning your trip and getting to Lake Placid—a tiny mountain town within hours of several major northeast metro areas, including New York City, Boston, and Montreal!

While you're here, be sure to experience our other legendary Olympic sites and take advantage of all downtown has to offer, including great diningshopping, and lodge-style lakeside stays. This region is known for its incredible outdoor recreation opportunities (the Adirondacks is the largest nature preserve in the lower 48 states!), but it's also home to a vibrant arts and culture scene and plenty of opportunities to relax.
