Celebrate the Magic of the Holidays in the Adirondacks

A Winter Wonderland Awaits

Celebrate the holidays in the Adirondack Mountains.

The Adirondack Mountains offer winter holiday experiences unlike any other, combining festive charm with the region’s rugged beauty.

Picture snow-dusted evergreen trees, quiet forest trails, and charming mountain villages adorned with holiday lights—this is the heart of the Adirondacks at Christmas and New Year’s.

Spending the holidays in the Adirondacks is an invitation to reconnect with nature, loved ones, and the season's magic.

Here, the holiday rush melts away, replaced by the peace and joy of a snow-covered paradise where traditions are made in the glow of winter’s splendor.
