Your family adventure awaits!

The Tupper Lake area offers activities and attractions for all ages. Whether your family has curious minds or adventurous legs, Tupper Lake has your next family vacation covered. 

  • Connect with the wild world at The Wild Center and Wild Walk! In winter, a coating of snow makes the trees extra pretty and wintering birds are busy in the trees.
  • Grab your skis and hit the trails all around town. Fun is just outside your door!
  • Hit the trails and complete the Tupper Triad — Coney Mountain, Mt. Arab, and Goodman Mountain — then register your family for their patches! Pack a picnic lunch and spend a little extra time enjoying all of the splendid scenic vistas along the way.
