Please join us on an Adirondack adventure to travel through this unique area in northern New York State.  Beautiful mountains, lakes, ponds and streams await you when driving your Full Classic® on roads that will remain “Forever Wild.”  In addition to touring the Adirondack Park, we will travel west to the Thousand Islands along the St. Lawrence River and east to the Vermont side of Lake Champlain.  The area you will be visiting is steeped in history from the Gilded Age Great Camps to a town that hosted two Olympic Games.

Because of the wilderness area, we will be providing for most of your meals – 10 breakfasts, 8 lunches and 8 dinners.  Fascinating museums, antique boats, a private car collection, touring a Rhineland style castle and viewing Olympic athletes perform are just a few of the exciting events we have planned for you.  This is a semi-hub tour, staying at two hotels – 3 days at the High Peaks Resort in Lake Placid, 2 days at the Riveredge Resort in Alexandria Bay and then back to Lake Placid at the High Peaks for 5 days.   The size of our CARavan is limited to 100 rooms at the High Peaks Resort which, if utilized, will give us sole occupancy of the hotel.

Our activity fee of $1,000 per person includes most events plus many extras; our hotel costs will be $198.24 for the High Peaks Resort, single or double and $173.41 double and $152.60 single for the Riveredge Resort.  These figures include all taxes.  Excellent trailer parking is available.  The Adirondack Regional Airport is only 16 miles from Lake Placid.  The detailed itinerary is below; if you would like further information, please email or give us a call.

We hope you will be able to join us on this great adventure – we guarantee a fantastic time and look forward to seeing you then!
