After we camped in the wonderful campground in Watkins Glen SP, we hiked the gorge trail first thing in the morning. It was just one beautiful waterfall after another. Don't miss it!

We hiked this short trail over the Memorial Day weekend. Lots of people stopped to gaze at the waterfalls, which were all breathtaking, but the trail is also very touristy. Hike the gorge, turn off along the rim trail, hike along the Finger Lakes Trail for more seclusion. Do the gorge trail just to say you did it.

Additional Information
Finger Lakes Travel Region - Glacial ice sheets deepened the earth becoming a basin with soil and rock deposits forming natural dams allowing glacial melts to fill what is now known as Finger Lakes.
New York State Parks - The New York Office of Parks, Recreation & Historic Preservation offers 152 parks, 35 historic sites and 27 golf courses for all tastes, ages and abilities.
