A staple of the Capital Region since the midst of the American Civil War, Saratoga continues to serve as host to one of the world’s most prestigious racing meets every summer. Since the first organized meet in 1863, the track known as the Spa continues to be a financial catalyst, generating thousands of jobs and hundreds of millions of dollars in economic activity. Currently home to a 40-day meet from July through September, Saratoga Race Course, located on historic Union Avenue across from the National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame, offers world-class racing, including 18 Grade 1 races, highlighted by the Whitney and the Runhappy Travers. It was named one of the world’s great sporting venues by Sports Illustrated.

What an awesome piece of Americana! This is a great all day activity. Although I want there for the breakfast it is a definite must do on our next visit. And we are 4.5 hours away. The people and the horses make for a spectacle that I haven’t really seen before. The hundreds of picnic tables are spoken for early in the morning. We went on a Wednesday and the whole venue was full. Not so much that I felt uncomfortable but this is definitely a go to spot for a lot of people, young and old. You don’t have to be into betting to enjoy this place. It definitely ties all that Saratoga Springs is together.

This Is A Great Place To Go In The Summer In New York. Saratoga Is Mobbed During Track Season And This Is A Beautiful Race Track.

I’m allergic to horses, but loved watching the races here. We reserved a picnic table. Most tables are fist-come first-served, but the reserves are up near the paddock, so you get an up-close look at the horses before the race.Automatic betting stations are everywhere.Screens allow you to watch the races, or you can leave your table and try to get a spot by the rail.For years I’ve said I want to go here, and now I can’t wait to go back.I respect the fact that they allow (or tolerate) protesters at their gate.
