Not So Beachy, Still Beautiful: Beach Road
The majestic and historic steamboats are likely one of the most photographed items in Lake George, regardless of the season. And they do look stunning in the winter. But, don't discount the entirety of Beach Road. Stand in different spots, play around with various angles.
When You're Driving Up the Lake: Sabbath Day Point Overlook
Up for a scenic drive north? Heading to the Adirondacks for further winter fun? Make sure you stop at Sabbath Day Point in Silver Bay, a pull-off where you can snap incredible photos of the northern end of the lake.
For the Brave Winter Hikers Out There: Cat Mountain
Hiking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and snowsports abound in Lake George. It's tough to pick one recreational spot for an excellent photo, but we had to go with Cat Mountain after seeing this gem. A three-mile long trail over moderate terrain will bring you to this photographable view.
See What the Snow & Ice Are Doing: The Docks on Lake George
Have you gotten caught up in the "when will the lake freeze?" excitement? Come see for yourself what the ice is doing at the docks on the southern basin. Whether the lake is frozen or not, the docks covered in snow or bare, you're sure to get some great shots.
When the lake is frozen it can look like a postcard. Capture people walking on the frozen lake, ice fishing, or snowmobiling - or even just some ducks in front of one of the Lake George Steamboat Company boats is enough to bring a picture to life.
Just walking around the Village, by the lake, or exploring places off the beaten path, you'll be sure to discover picturesque photo spots at any time of year.
