Spring has finally arrived in the Adirondacks! And along with the temperatures, the Lake George real estate market is warming up. In fact, April, May and early June are a great time to check out some open houses or schedule a private home tour before the busy tourist season begins.
Spring is also the perfect time to explore all that Lake George has to offer. While widely known for its summer fun, Lake George provides full-time residents with an abundance of year-round activities and events. Here are just a few of the things we look forward to after the winter thaw in the Lake George region.
Spring Things to Do in Lake George
Whitewater Rafting
Rapids are at their peak this time of year, so if you’re looking for an adrenaline rush, give whitewater rafting a try. There are several companies near Lake George that provide all the necessary gear and offer guided whitewater rafting trips on the Hudson and Sacandaga Rivers.
Biking
If you’re looking for a more tranquil outdoor adventure, the Adirondacks offer miles of trails for biking, including the scenic Warren County Bikeway. Easily accessible from Lake George’s Battlefield Park, this 9-mile long, wooded bike path features signs with historical information about the area, as well as a picnic area.

The pristine waters of Lake George are ideal for fishing. Whether you choose to venture off on your own or hire a professional boat or fishing charter, you’re bound to enjoy a beautiful day on the lake. Fish for lake trout, landlocked salmon, black bass and yellow perch.
