6) The Adirondacks
The Adirondack Mountains are a great place to spend some time during the warm summer months. If you enjoy hiking along scenic paths, this is an especially nice place to go, as you can hike to the Hudson River and partake in rafting once you arrive there. There are several lakes in the area as well, including Lake Placid, so you can go and enjoy other water sports in those areas. If you want to take a break from the outdoors, there are plenty of more low-key activities available, including visiting art galleries and studios. Summer is also a great time to visit in terms of events in the Adirondacks. There are music events throughout the different parks in the region, as well as contests, movies, and other performances.
