Climb New York’s Own ‘Stairway to Heaven’
New York has it's own 'Stairway to Heaven' and it's located near Lake Placid.
I love hiking around New York, heading along a pathway for the first time destined to find a waterfall, a kill or dramatic views but there is nothing quite like Stairway Ridge Trail on Whiteface Mountain in Wilmington. With an elevation of 4,867 feet above sea level you will feel you are climbing a stairway to heaven.
