The Adirondacks: a four-season playground that always spells adventure.
Spanning more than six million acres, the Adirondack Park is home to the largest protected natural area in the contiguous U.S. Stunning lakes, pristine forests and 46 impressive high peaks beckon. Ski at Whiteface or Gore mountains; Visit the Olympic Village in Lake Placid. Small revitalized towns and cities, like Plattsburgh and Glens Falls offer fine dining, breweries and an array of cultural opportunities. Hop off the train in Fort Edwards and take the bus to Lake George. This resort town, perched on beautiful Lake George, sparkles all year round. Water activities abound in the summer, while the Lake George Winter Carnival and the new Ice Castles make winter more fun, too. Amtrak’s Adirondack line, dubbed one of the most scenic train rides in the world, starts in Manhattan and culminates in Montréal. It’s back on track after a three-year, COVID-related hiatus!
