Finger Lakes Trail
This portion of the trail is part of a much larger regional trail system. Passing through remote areas of the Southern Tier of New York State, the main Finger Lakes Trail is 559 miles long and connects the Catskills with the Allegheny Mountains. Some of this trail crosses private land between sections of the Finger Lakes National Forest; please respect private property rights. This portion of the Finger Lakes Trail is also part of the North Country Trail, a National Scenic Trail that originates in North Dakota and meanders east to Lake Champlain. The portion of the trail that crosses the Finger Lakes National Forest is primitive in nature with a natural tread and boardwalk over wet areas. Portions of the trail are moderately steep as it travels through hardwood forest and open areas. There is an Adirondack style shelter that is available for camping on a first come-first served basis. Enjoy old vineyards and beautiful vistas from this trail, including views of Seneca Lake.
Skiers use caution: The section between Burnt Hill Road and County Route 4 contains steep downhill runs.
