Dynamic Duo
You are a dynamic duo!
You’re traveling with your significant other, or one of your best friends. Whether it's a romantic getaway with relaxing activities like shopping and sightseeing, or a fun-filled trip with casual camping and hiking, you enjoy spending time among the mountains with your travel buddy. We know how important trips are for building trust, friendship, and lasting memories between two people. Find some things to put on your itinerary below!
What To Do As a Duo
Take a tour of the Adirondack Rail Trail!
As a couple or adventure duo, exploring everything the Adirondack Rail Trail has to offer is a must. As a duo, take your pick of bicycle, Class 1 e-bike, or hiking boot, and you can connect multiple communities in a single day. In the winter, the trail is open for snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and even snowmobiling. You can stop into town, grab coffee, food, and souvenirs to bring home. While you're stopped, check out a museum, listen to some live music, or take a walking tour of the town!
Regions You'll Love
Whiteface Region
This region has some of the finest options for relaxation and adventure, perfect for a trip with your partner or BFF. There are endless scenic vacation rentals with hot tubs and saunas, affordable motels close to Whiteface Mountain’s skiing and summer activities, and even farm stays. While you and your adventure buddy are here, try out the farm-to-table dining options, do a little hiking, or give mountain biking a try.
Lake Placid
With perhaps the best Main Street for shopping in the entire Adirondacks and endless fun activities to enjoy (indoors and outdoors), Lake Placid is ideal for a dynamic duo. On rainy days, enjoy shopping, dining, and grabbing drinks after some lively bowling sessions. When the sun comes out, check out Olympic Legacy Sites that offer real sport-simulating experiences, roller coasters, zip lines, and more. After a day of hiking one or two scenic trails, settle into your home away from home, which could be anything from a luxury lodge to a cozy hostel.
Tupper Lake
Tupper Lake is a fantastic choice for couples and best friends, as it offers numerous exciting adventures, places to stay, and spots to eat that are both affordable and easily accessible. You can test your relationship (or friendship) on a fun, quick outdoor challenge like the Tupper Lake Hiking or Paddling Triad. After a day of exploration, you can easily transition to enjoying the lively local craft breweries and pubs, watching a film at the historic theater, or relaxing at an arcade for low-cost, high-fun entertainment.
