Named for its calming aura and its resemblance to a mirror, Mirror Lake is right in the center of Lake Placid, reflecting the quaint and charming village in its waters.
Named for its calming aura and its resemblance to a mirror, Mirror Lake is right in the center of Lake Placid, reflecting the quaint and charming village in its waters. No motorized boats are allowed on the lake, but paddle boats, canoes and kayaks are welcome to troll through its calm waters to enjoy the surrounding beauty.
A leisurely 2.7-mile stroll around the lake will give you a tour of Lake Placid, bring you by the Winter Toboggan Chute as well as a public beach that marks the start of the swimming portion of the USA Ironman Triathlon.
While Lake Placid is a haven for skiing during the winter, Mirror Lake offersice skating and dogsled rides. For those looking for an even more thrilling winter activity, soar down the Lake Placid Toboggan Chute which brings sledders right onto the ice of Mirror Lake.
