Après-Hike is the New Après-Ski – And Cloudsplitter Rooftop Bar is the Place to Be
Summer in Lake Placid isn’t just about hitting the trails — it’s about how you wind down after the summit. Whether you hiked a High Peak, explored Mirror Lake, or wandered the woods near town, there’s no better way to cap off your adventure than with a cold drink, great food, and a relaxed vibe at Cloudsplitter Rooftop Bar.
