The Lake George
Fall Vacation Guide

August and September overlap the Summer and Fall seasons in the Adirondacks.  Hot days can extend well into September for some great late Summer fun in The Lake George area.  Georgian guests enjoy vacations with swimming, boating, fishing, whitewater rafting and more!  Fall is also the season for festivals and events.  Let’s go!

Fall Activities and Attractions

Many Lake George area attractions are open thru Columbus Day Weekend – October 13.  The Six Flags Great Escape Amusement Park is open on Saturdays and Sundays after Labor Day and has many Fall events including Fright Fest in October.  Website

Lake Cruises go out thru October 26, and this is a great way to enjoy the Fall Foliage and Lake George.  Fall Cruise Schedule for LG Steamboat includes daily departures on the Lac du Saint Sacrement – 2 hours, depart at 12 Noon with or without Lunch.  Also daily departures aboard the Mohican for the 2 1/2 hour Island Exploration Cruise.   See the Full Fall Schedule for Lake George Steamboat Company and Shoreline Cruises.

Hiking Fall in the Adirondacks is the time of year for hiking – cooler weather makes for easier going and the colors are spectacular!  The Lake George Area has some spectacular hikes!  See the Georgian Resort Hiking Guide with a Google Map of hiking trail-heads, trail descriptions and maps downloadable to your phone.
