New York's Olympic Region is one of the great playgrounds of North America, offering year-round fun and excitement. Nestled in the northeastern portion of the Adirondack wilderness of New York State, the rugged mountain scenery, heavy winter snows, and a pleasant summer climate combine to make the Lake Placid region a popular tourist year-round resort. The Olympic facilities used for the 1932 and 1980 Olympic Winter Games, Santa's Workshop, Highfalls Gorge and other tourist attractions make this area fabulous for family vacations! From Metropolitan New York City and New Jersey: Take the New York State Thruway (I-87) north to Exit 24 (Albany). Take I-87 north to Exit 30. Pick up Route 9 north and follow it for two miles to Route 73. Continue on Route 73 for 28 miles to the Lake Placid area.
