Lake Placid – The Adirondack Mountains are well known as one of the great playgrounds in the world.
Visit in any season, and you can immerse yourself in many outdoor activities. From skiing and skating, to hiking and running, marathons and Ironman races, or a 10,000 step walk, our region in Upstate New York has a recreational menu that attracts thousands each year.
However, we can get so excited about the activity that we forget the need to recharge so you can do it again tomorrow. To that end, please consider the AAA Four Diamond Mirror Lake Inn, long considered among Lake Placid luxury spa resorts. We offer a veritable Adirondack wellness retreat, complete with personalized spa treatments, indoor pool with sauna, jacuzzi and new fitness center. The inn’s most recent addition, its Nordic Spa, offers an outdoor hot tub heated to 102 degrees, with adjacent sauna at a temperature of 155.
Among the hands-on services, consider a healing post-hike massage among our European spa treatments.
The choices are many to recoup and get you back out on the trails.
As you know, Lake Placid hosts world-class competitions and training virtually around the calendar. Countless Olympians – medal winners among them – come to our village annually in search of World Cup medals and points. Those professional men and women understand recovery for athletes, and the time required to enter the fray once again.
Amateur and recreational athletes who visit us would do well to follow their lead. After all, if the best in the world emphasize recharging, why not the rest of us?
