Gore Mountain is home to the sixth-greatest vertical drop in the east and the most ski-able terrain in New York State. It's one of the most popular alpine skiing and snowboarding destinations in the Adirondacks, with an even mix of trails across levels and plenty of gorgeous glades, including the longest gladed trail in the Northeast. Winter activities include downhill, cross-country skiing, snowboarding, and snowshoeing. Special events range from non-competitive family-oriented fun to regional and Northeastern ski races. Gore has an incredible gondola ride that warms guests while offering stunning views of the snowy slopes before its time to zip down again. Summer and fall offer scenic gondola rides, mountain biking, festivals, hiking, and guided hiking.
