Like fingers elegantly tracing the earth, the Finger Lakes in central New York are gracefully north to south, creating an undulating landscape filled with natural wonders. Left behind by ancient glaciers, these 11 long, narrow lakes and the surrounding region boast forested hills, soaring cliffs, spectacular waterfalls, deep gorges and miles of unspoiled shoreline – a perfect Road Adventure destination. Spanning a large geographic region – nearly 9,000 square miles – the Finger Lakes offer abundant outdoor recreation. Hike, peddle or ride horses along some of the hundreds of miles of trails. Bring your camera – the scenery is unparalleled. Water enthusiasts will thrill at the incredible lakes and rivers where you can swim, boat, kayak and canoe. And don’t forget your fishing pole. These waters are packed with walleye, pike, trout, salmon, steelhead, muskellunge, bass and more. Start your Road Adventure at Watkins Glen, New York – an easy day’s drive from Columbus, Ohio.
