Lake Placid Winter Olympic Town Snow & Ice
Ski and see the ski jumps at the two-time Winter Olympics host town, with a stop in Saratoga Springs on the return.
A short itinerary designed specifically for winter. Stay in Lake Placid Village and split two full days between skiing at Whiteface and visiting the Olympic venues; non-skiers can enjoy gondola rides and ice skating. Pay attention to road conditions on mountain roads in winter. Bobsled rides have been suspended in recent years; check official announcements for updates. This route bypasses Adirondack hiking and is perfect for families and friends looking to experience winter in eastern North America.
The snow season runs from approximately December to March; snowfall is common in the mountains, so rent a 4WD vehicle and ensure it has snow tires.
