More about Watkins Glen State Park...

Watkins Glen State Park is the most famous of the Finger Lakes State Parks, with a reputation for leaving visitors spellbound. Within two miles, the glen's stream descends 400 feet past 200-foot cliffs, generating 19 waterfalls along its course. The gorge path winds over and under waterfalls and through the spray of Cavern Cascade. Rim trails overlook the gorge. Campers and day-visitors can enjoy the Olympic-size pool, scheduled summer tours through the gorge, tent and trailer campsites, picnic facilities and excellent fishing in nearby Seneca Lake or Catherine Creek, which is renowned for its annual spring run of rainbow trout.

  • Yes, Watkins Glen State Park is a very nice place to visit. Is the State done w renovations? They had the place torn up 2 years ago when we visited the Glass Museum in Corning.

    • I think the project should be done now, but I’m not sure. I usually park up by the pool and then walk down to the gorge.
