Tips from the community
Same distance as Lake George, but way better. The less-touristy Lake Placid is a little mountain town in the heart of the Adirondacks. The ADK's are filled with 46 high peaks (mountains at or over 4,000ft), and you can definitely hit one in a day if you wake up early and get back to Burlington late. If you have time for a beer, Big Slide is cool and has some bomb vegan options on their menu (yo vegan supreme veggie pizza). Distance from Burlington: 2 hours.
