All the color, all the adventure
The love for autumn in Saranac Lake is real. Saranac Lake is full of eye-popping views year-round, but it’s hard to deny the unique beauty of fall in the Adirondacks. From blazing orange to subtle yellow to fire engine red, the trees provide a landscape that is simply unforgettable. During your next fall outing, make sure to take in all Saranac Lake has to offer. While the brilliant red and yellow leaves may steal the show, there are festivities to be found all around town. Don't forget to pack your camera! The stunning fall foliage awaits.
The best activities for fall fun
Saranac Lake makes the most out of the fall atmosphere. One of these ways is hosting farmer's markets! While you might think summer is prime time for farmers and artists to sell their product, fall offers up just as much fresh produce, art pieces, and tradition. After you stock up on authentic fall trinkets and tasty foods, fall hiking should be next on your list! See the colors from right in town on the Riverwalk or perched on top of a fire tower.
