About

Round Mountain is a summit in New York, rising to 3,116 feet. The nearest town is Elizabethtown, about 10 miles away. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical July averages from a nearby weather station at Lake Placid run to a high of 74°F and a low of 54°F, and the summit sits higher than that station, so expect cooler temperatures up top. The S. Burns Weston Trail starts just 0.1 mile away, and the King Wall climbing area is about 0.4 mile off. The Felix Adler Trail and Henry Stimson Trail are both within about a mile and a quarter.
