New York is one of the most beautiful places to enjoy the winter season. The mountainous Adirondacks and Catskills regions, in particular, contain unique, one-of-a-kind attractions. Let’s take a closer look at all that winter living in the Adirondacks and Catskills has to offer.
Enjoy Delightful Winter Recreation
These regions, with exquisite icy waterfalls and snow-lined trails, are terrific for hiking, savoring scenic views, and engaging in other winter activities. In the Catskills, Hunter Mountain Resort is an exceptional place to go tubing, skiing, or snowboarding. And if you’ve ever wanted to try snowmobiling, the Flat Rock Inn in Lowville is a great place to dash through terrain while admiring the surrounding landscape.
Some of the Adirondacks region’s best recreational activities include snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and ice climbing. To truly make the most of the Adirondacks, be sure to attend the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival from February 2nd through 11th, or the Adirondack WhiteOut Weekend from February 16th through 18th.
Warm Up With Delicious Food and Drinks
S’mores, hot chocolate, and more are readily available throughout the Catskill Mountains. Roe Jan Brewing Co. in Hillsdale and Nat’s Mountain House in Tannersville are perfect for warming up, refueling, and enjoying live music after a busy day of skiing, snow tubing, or snowmobiling.
The Adirondacks region also boasts a wealth of delectable meals and drinks. Indulge in Parisian delights at The Left Bank Cafe in Saranac Lake, while Pitkin’s Restaurant in Schroon Lake is the go-to spot for warm teas, hot soups, breakfast specials, and other mouthwatering dishes.
