2020’s Best Ways to Celebrate Fall, Upstate New York-Style

When it comes to fall, Upstate New York is the place to be. From lush, orange and red mountainsides to late-season white water and perfect bonfire weather, we really have it made come mid-September. The team here at Alpine had a tough time choosing just a few of our favorite ways to make the most of the best (and quickest) season, but here are some great ways to get started and enjoy the Upstate New York fall season. 

Fall adventure awaits at Gore Mountain 

Just 5 minutes from North Creek, Gore Mountain keeps the fun going all year long. Head over for scenic sky rides and hiking, biking, and disc golf courses open Saturdays and Sundays through October 11. Check out all their off-season attractions: https://www.goremountain.com/mountain/summer-fall 

Take in the sights of an Upstate New York fall in Lake George

This summer escape may lose the foot traffic come fall, but oh what it gains in natural beauty! Take in the changing leaves as you stroll through Lake George Village or explore the trails on horseback! And with dozens of hikes around the lake with panoramic views, there’s no wrong way to spend the day!

Get a taste of fall with a Make Your Own Brewery Tour 

Enjoy the changing leaves at your own pace when you build your own brewery tour! Whether you’re looking for walkable options in Lake George or Glens Falls or want to do a bit more exploring between stops, there are hundreds of great local beers made right here to enjoy this fall in Upstate New York.
