LAKE PLACID OLYMPIC JUMP COMPLEX

Riders launch from the top of the 70‑foot Sky Flyer tower, settling into a seated position before gravity takes over. The flight drops 256 vertical feet and carries guests 855 feet down the landing hill, reaching speeds of up to 30 mph. With four side‑by‑side cables, families and friends can soar together, experiencing the sensation of an Olympian lifting off the takeoff table and gliding toward the outrun below. What makes this location extraordinary is the setting itself. The Olympic Jumping Complex sits above Lake Placid with sweeping views of the Adirondack High Peaks, and the entire experience begins with a scenic gondola and elevator ride to the top of the HS120 tower. From the observation deck, guests can look out over the village, the forests, and the historic Olympic venues that define this region. It’s one of the few places in the world where the public can stand — and fly — from the same vantage point as world‑class ski jumpers. The Sky Flyer ZipRider® has become a standout attraction at the complex, offering an approachable, family‑friendly way to connect with Lake Placid’s Olympic legacy. Whether you’re an adventure‑seeker, a lifelong winter‑sports fan, or simply curious about what it feels like to “take flight,” the Sky Flyer delivers a one‑of‑a‑kind experience rooted in history, height, and pure exhilaration.
