We have been talking about doing a sleigh ride for over a decade. Honestly, there were a lot of reasons that it just didn't happen, but this year we decided that we wanted to do this- and it held a lot of emotions as I know some of you can well understand.

As the day of the sleigh ride approached though we truly were looking forward to it and it brought such joy to anticipate this.

And to make it even more magical, the day before the sleigh ride occurred, we received our first full snowstorm of the year... it truly added to the beauty and the holiday spirit beyond anything we could have imagined.

The sleigh rides take place at Lake Clear Lodge in Lake Clear, New York. It is always amazing to me to discover a new spot of the Adirondacks that I am not familiar with. I love the reminder that there is so much adventure to be had right in our own backyards!

The sleigh rides are hosted at Lake Clear Lodge and are run by Lucky Clover Sleighs which hosts year round horse drawn rides.

It was a beautiful ride y'all. It was so quiet in the woods and the beauty was absolutely stunning.

The ride lasted for approximately 20 minutes and included beautiful views, delightful adventure, and even some galloping with the horses! It was so fun and we are still talking about it weeks later.

We technically did the lantern sleigh ride. The times available run from 3:15-9:00pm. We chose an available slot at 3:55 which turned out to be perfect. The sun was setting and we got to truly appreciate all of the beauty that surrounded us. With the first snowfall, this time was perfect but honestly I think the evening hours in the dark would be magical too. We will just have to check them all out!

We had such a great time! It was so full of joy! If you would like to see more pictures check out my reel that I mentioned earlier in this post! Have you gone on a sleigh ride? Any suggestions for your favorite place to go?

Happy Tuesday friends!
