Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

Watkins Glen State Park is perhaps the most famous of New York’s Finger Lakes State Parks and has a bit of a reputation for leaving its guests spellbound. Within just two miles, the stream of the glen descends down four hundred feet past cliffs measuring two hundred feet and generating a total of nineteen waterfalls along the way. Visitors can hike along the rim trails in Watkins Glen State Park to get a viewpoint overlooking the gorge. The park also includes an Olympic-size pool for both day-use visitors and campers, both trailer and tent campsites, fishing opportunities, and picnic facilities.
