There are so many things to do in upstate New York, from skiing and hiking to ice skating and golf, that many people who travel to the area would never think about taking in a good movie as part of their vacation. But there is a surprise in the area for visitors and locals alike.
Get a taste of the "old days" with a sentimental trip to Mountain Drive-In Theatre near Windham, New York. It is here that people can enjoy movies on the mountain. Yes, that is correct. Every weekend people pull their car up next to one of the speakers and drift back to days gone by, watching a movie under the stars.
Actually located near the village of Hunter, New York, the Mountain Drive-In offers double features for one admission price. These are no second choice, "B" movies either. For example, one weekend the movie buffs enjoyed well-known "Raiders of the Lost Ark," a true record-breaking film that starred Harrison Ford, Karen Allen, Denholm Elliot and others. Believe it or not, the audience was able to experience this thrilling feature film on a large screen, while relaxing under the night sky.
Shows generally began at 8 p.m. and 10 p.m. Of course, individual tickets are available, one price for both shows on a double feature. But groups get a discount! The entry fee is only $15 for a full vehicle. Here's another plus for Mountain Drive-In — movie audio is simulcast on FM radio! Mountain Drive-In is located at 1957 State Highway 296.
