The longest of New York’s Finger Lakes, Cayuga Lake stretches slightly less than forty miles long. Located along the shores of the scenic lake are several places for visitors to explore, such as Taughannock Falls State Park with its hiking trails and waterfall, several wineries, charming towns like Aurora and Union Springs, the Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge, and more. At the end of Cayuga is the city of Ithaca, home to the prestigious Cornell University. The Cayuga Lake Scenic Byway runs around the picturesque lake, boasting more than eighty miles of some of the region’s most amazing views.
