Watkins Glen State Park is in western New York State, in the village of Watkins Glen, at the southern tip of Seneca Lake. Watkins Glen contains several small waterfalls, and is a really amazing place especially for those who like the sight and sound of rock and water.

the main attraction are the trails through the Glen, particularly the gorge trail. The park is right in the middle of town, across the street from a sub shop. The Glen is small. It is only 2 miles long, 300 feet deep, and in places only a dozen or so feet wide, so you can easily see everything in half a day. The stairs are slippery and narrow so you have to watch your step. The place does get crowded, but it is nice and deserted in the early morning.
