2024 Lake Placid Trail Challenge

Welcome to the 2024 Lake Placid Trail Challenge in partnership with Mt Van Hoevenberg. Racers will start and finish in the stadium that serves as the centerpiece to this winter sports complex, and their path will take them through dense forest and up steep climbs to the top of a bobsled track and beyond. Epic views await at the summit, as does a test of the legs for the long descent to the finish.
