Description
How to travel the North East:
We decided to go to Lake Seneca on a whim. We had heard about Watkins Glen State Park so we knew we were going to explore that area a bit. We were so happy that we did. The park is spectacular and there were great opportunities to capture some waterfalls.
This image was my son's idea. :)
Watkins Glen State Park in New York is a stunning natural wonder that draws visitors from far and wide. Located in the Finger Lakes region, it's renowned for its breathtaking scenery, including cascading waterfalls, dramatic cliffs, and lush greenery.
The park features a gorge trail that winds its way through the glen, offering visitors the chance to explore its beauty up close. As you traverse the trail, you'll encounter a series of picturesque waterfalls, with the most famous being the 60-foot-high Cavern Cascade. The trail also passes through tunnels and over bridges, providing unique perspectives of the landscape.
One of the most iconic features of Watkins Glen State Park is the Rainbow Bridge, which spans high above the gorge and offers stunning views of the surrounding scenery. The park is also home to several other notable landmarks, including the Spiral Tunnel and the Spiral Gorge.
In addition to hiking, visitors can enjoy picnicking, camping, fishing, and swimming in the park's facilities. Watkins Glen State Park is open year-round, though some amenities may be seasonal, and it's particularly popular during the summer months when the weather is warm and the waterfalls are flowing at their fullest.
Overall, Watkins Glen State Park is a must-visit destination for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts, offering unparalleled beauty and opportunities for exploration and relaxation.
