Located 23 miles east of Tupper Lake you will find Mount Pisgah Ski Area -- or Pisgah, as it's known locally. This classic small town Adirondack skiing spot delivers gentle alpine slopes, tubing, and more!

Downhill skiing

The gentle slopes, dedicated staff, and welcoming atmosphere make it especially inviting for family skiing and tubing.

Many green and blue trails for beginners out of the 15 skiable alpine acres. Vertical rise of 329 feet. The lift is a T-bar which allows skiers to choose the length of their run. Bonus: Lights for night skiing!

Tubing

Tubing at Mt. Pisgah comes with all the thrills including taking you back up to the top with a rope tow. Two runs for inner tube “races” but we aren’t telling you which one is faster. A 2-hour tubing pass for the 2024-2025 season is $25.

Learning

The Saranac Lake Ski Club/Friends of Mount Pisgah offer ski and snowboard lessons. Lessons are only offered to members of the Saranac Lake Ski Club and are given 2 days a week, for 6 weeks starting in January. 

Snowshoeing

3.5 kilometers of snowshoe trails with beautiful vantage points to see the vistas. Pisgah is well situated to view the McKenzie Mountain Wilderness and the Saranac River.

Lodge

Enjoy hot beverages and food near the centrally located, native stone, fireplace. Broad windows let you watch the skiers across the whole slope while you refuel on food provided by ADKStreetEats.
