Gold medal fun
Not everyone can say the Olympics took place in their own backyard. We can, and we love to share that experience! Today, you can tour many of the 1932 and 1980 Olympic Legacy Sites, no matter the season!
The famed Olympic Center stands out, full of history and activities. Enjoy public skating year-round, hockey tournaments, the Olympic Museum. The Olympic Center also offers historic tours of this amazing complex, including the rink of the famous "Miracle on Ice" where the United States pulled ahead of the heavily favored Soviet Union in the third period to win the game in the 1980 Winter Olympics medal round.
At the Olympic Jumping Complex, visitors in winter are awed by the sight of the snow-covered 90- and 120-meter ski jumps, where athletes train and compete. Take the elevator to the top for a breathtaking bird’s-eye view of the Adirondack winter landscape, or watch ski jumpers soar through the crisp, snowy air. Mt. Van Hoevenberg is also a hub for winter fun, featuring cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, bobsled and luge experiences, and more, all set against stunning winter scenery.
Whiteface Mountain was home to many alpine ski events; in winter, ski the same slopes as Olympians and in summer ride the gondola to the summit for golden views!
If you're looking to visit multiple Olympic Legacy Sites, the Legacy Sites Passport is perfect for you! One unbeatable price will get you a single admission to all four sites, plus 10% off shopping and dining at all the Legacy Sites, and bonus free admission to a host of fun events over the summer!
