7) Have a Date Night in the Sky With Leaf Air
How does a private, scenic flight together over Lake George sound? Leaf Air, based in Fort Ann, provides reasonably priced flights year-round. Bonus tip: This is a great way to propose.

Fun, and free! Lights at the Lake is a new walk-through attraction in Charles R. Wood Park. No snow is needed to walk hand in hand through dazzling light displays.
9) Go for a Winter Hike or Snowshoeing Excursion
Winter hiking or snowshoeing is always an option, especially for the frugal or outdoorsy couple. Stay warm and safe while exploring Lake George area trails at a time when fewer hikers will likely be out and about - more private time for you!
10) Attend a Hockey Game at the Cool Insuring Arena
Even if you're not the sportiest of couples, it's tough not to get into a rousing game of Adirondack Thunder hockey at the Cool Insuring Arena in Glens Falls. You'll be cheering "Let's go Thunder!" before you know it!
11) Throw Axes Together at Adirondack Axe
If you haven't jumped onto the axe throwing bandwagon, give it a try at Adirondack Axe, situated inside Aviation Mall in Queensbury. If you want to rage out together, they also have a Bash It Smash Room.
12) Make Candles Together at Wax 'n Wix
Open year-round inside the Lake George Outlets and in the Village, Wax n' Wix offers a fun way to have a crafty time with your partner. You can easily book online through their website.
