Enjoy the outstanding beauty of Watkins Glen...waterfalls, hiking, wine country and much more.

WATKINS GLEN STATE PARK is the most famous of the Finger Lakes State Parks with a reputation for leaving visitors spellbound. Within two miles, the glen's stream descends 400 feet past 200-foot cliffs, generating 19 waterfalls along its course. The gorge path winds over and under waterfalls and through the spray of Cavern Cascade. There is a New York State Park entrance fee. Website: www.nysparks.com
