Lake Placid is best known as the site of the 1980 Winter Olympics, but the outdoor attractions including hiking, golf, and skiing, as well as the natural scenery have kept visitors coming back long after the Games ended. In recent years, the town has also become known as a premier spa destination. While you are here, try some of the delicious local seafood at the restaurants along Shore Drive, or visit Main Street for the quaint boutiques that offer a wonderful shopping experience.

Be sure to also make time for some of these outdoor activities that make Lake Placid an immensely popular getaway destination:
