From the field guides.

Golf in the Adirondacks.
Thirty-two courses inside the Blue Line — Donald Ross's Sagamore on Lake George, Seymour Dunn's Saranac Inn, the Lake Placid Club's three courses, Craig Wood, Whiteface Club, and the working municipal nines of the Park.

Top Scenic Drives.
The Olympic Byway, the Roosevelt-Marcy Highway, the Adirondack Trail — eight named state byways and twelve regional drives, with the overlooks, roadside attractions, and foliage windows that make them.
