Skyride Experience

Two siblings, a boy and girl, look out at the Adirodnacks Mountains a blue sky summer day on top of the Sky Deck viewing area on top of a ski jump.

Take in the Olympic Jumping Complex, no ski jumping required!

The Skyride Experience offers a unique and unforgettable way to visit the Olympic Jumping Complex and take in stunning views of Lake Placid. Your journey begins with a scenic gondola ride, offering a bird’s-eye view of the landing hill as you travel up to the base of the ski jumps. From there, a short walk leads you to an elevator that takes you to the top of the HS 128-meter jump. At the summit, the Sky Deck provides breathtaking panoramic views of Lake Placid and the Adirondack Mountains.

After returning to the base of the ski jumps, step onto the coach’s deck for an up-close look at the HS 100- and 128-meter jumps. You’ll see where athletes transition from frost rail to flight and gain a unique perspective on this Olympic sport.

Even better? The Skyride Experience is included with the Lake Placid Legacy Sites Passport, a savings tool for those looking to experience all of the Lake Placid Legacy Sites.
