Skyride Experience
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 top, breathtaking panoramic views of Lake Placid and the Adirondack Mountains. *From there, step out onto the Sky Deck for a unique perspective of the HS 128. You’ll feel like a ski jumper ready to take flight!
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.
(*Please note the outdoor viewing deck on the top of the HS 128 is closed for maintenance until further notice. Guests can still take the elevator to the top and enjoy views from the athletes lounge.)
