New York’s Adirondacks is the perfect place for travelers to unwind, reset and take in the beautiful fall foliage. Whiteface Lodge, a MICHELIN One Key resort located in the woodlands of Lake Placid, combines rustic luxury with the peacefulness of the outdoors. Guests can participate in outdoor wellness activities such as forest bathing, stone massages and private lean-tos warmed by firelight.
This fall at the property, let nature be your therapy. Lake Placid has one of the longest fall seasons in the country thanks to its diverse elevations and microclimates. Get outdoors and take advantage of seeing the autumn colors by exploring the area’s 2,000 miles of local hiking trails. These trails include High Falls Gorge, known as the Adirondacks’ most stunning 30-minute walk; Whiteface Landing, featuring calming lake views; Catamount Mountain, which has twin summits and panoramic views; and Whiteface Mountain, boasting a variety of trails for hikers.
After a day of adventure, treat yourself to a day at the lodge’s The Spa: Inspired by the Elements. The spa, named a Top 100 Spa by Spas of America, offers an array of fall-themed treatments including Ausable River Stone Massage, a treatment named after the nearby Ausable River, using heated basalt stones and Swedish techniques to ease tension; and the Great Outdoors Facial, where skin is rejuvenated through antioxidants and botanical extracts.
Additionally, guests can book the Stay More, Play More offer for a $150 resort credit toward the lodge’s spa and dining when booking three or more nights.
