Finger Lakes Trail
About Finger Lakes Trail ....
Here is a map of the Finger Lakes Trail, shown in Green . Unfortunately a few of the segments are missing from the trail, they are unavailable on OpenStreetMap at least based on my causal inspection of the data. This map by default shows the traditional USGS paper maps, but you can switch to alternative layers. Also shown are other DEC roads and trails with a dashed mark, and DEC lands with green overlay.
Data Source: Open Street Map extract, October 2020.
Helpful Hint: While I suggest you look on blog for a downloadable PDF Map, you should be able to print or save this map by clicking the print button on the map above.

More about Finger Lakes...
Nestled in the heart of Upstate New York, the Finger Lakes comprise a distinctive network of lakes, presenting a captivating bioregion. This locale has garnered popularity as a sought-after tourist destination. Resembling elongated fingers, these lakes gracefully stretch along a north-south axis. Notably, these majestic lakes, echoing the graceful curvature of human fingers, collectively form a natural wonder evoking awe and inspiration.
Of note, Cayuga Lake and Seneca Lake hold the distinction of being both among the longest and deepest lakes in the United States. Each spanning nearly 40 miles end to end, and never exceeding 3.5 miles in width, they exhibit remarkable proportions. Among these, Cayuga Lake boasts the longest stretch at 38.1 miles, while Seneca Lake commands the largest total area. Delving beneath sea level, Seneca Lake plunges to an astounding 618 feet (188 m) in depth, while Cayuga Lake follows suit at 435 feet (133 m).
