The Little-Known Park In New York That Transforms Into An Ice Palace In The Winter
If you’re looking for something memorable and breathtaking to do this winter, then you should head on up to Lake George to visit the Ice Castles. This attraction reappears in Charles R. Woods Park in Lake George Village every winter, and it’s truly spectacular. This ice palace in New York will amaze you with its beauty, and it’s fun for the whole family. Read on to learn more.
Ice Castles is an award-winning, awe-inspiring, must-see attraction that happens in five states during the coldest part of the winter. We are so lucky to have one in New York and there's no better place to experience it than on the shores of incredible Lake George.
The company that creates these ice castles has been doing so since 2011. The company's founder, Brent Christiansen, started by making small ice castles in his own yard in Utah with a garden hose. They were such a hit with the neighborhood kids, he decided to take it on the road.
Visiting this icy attraction during the day is wonderful. You'll really be able to see all the details in the structures, which are made by spraying water over a scaffolding.
You'll really feel like you are in a magical castle as you walk around. Most people stay about 45 minutes to an hour, so make sure you dress warmly to experience it all in comfort.
Ice Castles is the ultimate winter attraction in New York. You’ll love everything about this very special place and experience. Once you visit once, you’ll want to come back every year!
