The Olympic Village of Lake Placid offers winter fun such as ice skating, visiting the 1980 and 1932 Olympic bobsled run or ski jump complex and skiing at Whiteface Mountain. In the summer spend the day hiking or kayaking in this wild setting. You will find many friendly restaurants, motels, and lodges within this natural playground, and getting there is much easier than you may think, enjoy a scenic drive through the wilderness of upstate New York.
