Nestled in between the majestic Adirondack mountains, Lake Placid is the place where winter is enjoyed, not endured. The snow flurries bring with them a flurry of fun and exciting activities that will take you from deep contemplation to adrenaline pumping adventures.

For those Royal Holiday members who are looking for sheer excitement, Lake Placid offers a myriad of freshly powdered slopes to ski, snowboard or slide upon, including Whiteface: the slope with the highest vertical in the east.

For those Royal Holiday members who prefer to immerse into Nature and find their inner voice, Lake Placid offers the beautiful and peaceful Cross Country Skis. The trail is so silent that the sound of your breath and the hissing of the skis merge into one. You can also explore this winter wonderland by snowshoe, snowmobile, dogsled or horse-drawn sled. No matter which one you choose, the experience will be burnt into the core of your winter memories.

For those of you looking for culture and history there are several museums in and around Lake Placid. Outstanding amongst them are the Adirondack Museum, the Wild Center Museum and the 1932 and 1980 Winter Olympic Museum. There is also a Tour of the Olympic Village.
