Wine Trails & Scenic Adventures

Known for its award-winning wineries, Finger Lakes Wine Country comprises 11 distinctive lakes including Seneca Lake, the largest and most centrally located one.  Visitors return year after year to enjoy boating, fishing, water sports and so much more. Situated on the southernmost tip of Seneca Lake and home to the popular Seneca, Cayuga, and Keuka Wine Trails, the town of Watkins Glen is the ideal place to begin your adventure.

Start at Watkins Glen State Park with its remarkable gorge trail highlighted by 19 waterfalls, ideal for hiking and biking. On everyone’s bucket list is a visit to Watkins Glen International, voted “Best NASCAR Track” by readers of USA Today, while animal lovers won’t want to miss the Farm Sanctuary, a 300-acre spread that shelters rescued farm animals. Other fun things to see and do include browsing in the historic Franklin Street shopping district of Watkins Glen, taking in a show at the Lake Country Player Community Theater, or visiting one of the area’s many museums. Among the standouts are the Rockwell Museum of Western Art, Museum of the Earth, and Corning Museum of Glass.
