About Lake George Expedition Park
Lake George Expedition Park joins Dino Roar Valley, a half-mile trail of life-size animatronic dinosaurs, with The Forest, the old Magic Forest ride area. It suits kids about 2 to 10. One $39.99 ticket covers both sides, and the 2027 season pass at $69.99 pays for itself in two visits.

Little ways to save
If you will visit twice, buy the $69.99 season pass. Two day tickets cost $79.98.
Parking is free, so the ticket price is your whole entry cost.
Go in June on a weekend or after June 27 on a weekday for shorter lines.
Kids under 52 inches ride the Ferris wheel, Scrambler and Paratrooper with an adult, so plan for a grown-up ticket.
