the beauty is abundant in this region, so you’ll want to keep your camera handy. here are a few easy tips to make sure you capture the “ahhh!” photo. early morning and late evening are best times to shoot landscapes. this is because the low angle of the sun picks out shadows and reveals textures. and, whenever possible, place something of interest (like a person!) in the foreground of the shot to create a sense of depth. recreAtion & AttrActions | 8


A WATERfALLS ANd NATuRAL BEAuTy

>> Find out why waterfalls have inspired romantics, nature lovers and scientists alike. a little bit of exploring will reveal the many delightful waterfalls that fill schuyler county. Whether tucked amidst peaceful wooded trails or visible from main highways, these natural wonders surprise even the locals as they change shape and form throughout the seasons. awe inspiring sites are not limited to waterfalls, however. see why Watkins glen state park was named to Reserve America’s top 25 scenic views list. Bike or stroll on the newly completed 9-mile catharine valley trail which runs alongside the lovely and historic catharine creek. Birdwatching? Keep a sharp eye out in Queen catharine marsh for a Bald eagle or Blue Winged Warbler sighting. and, be sure to explore the Finger lakes national Forest, new york state’s only national forest, set along the scenic ridges between cayuga lake and seneca lake — for unlimited recreation opportunities any season of the year.

HOSpITALITy >> Wineries, BreWeries and more >> our region is often referred to as the “napa valley of the east” — and with good reason! With nearly 50 wineries around seneca lake (the largest collection of wineries in new york state) you’ll find award-winning rieslings, cabernets, ice wines and more. But, if your tastes lean more toward something brewed, try a mad monk dunkelweizen or a sled dog doppelbock at our two microbreweries. Feeling adventurous? Be sure to visit our brand new distillery for a taste of the glen thunder whiskey or some blueberry liquor. regional wines, beers and spirits offer tastes that beg to be taken home. Bring along a box, wine carrier, basket or cooler that can help protect and safely carry your new favorites. or, inquire about shipping options that may be available.

Dd don’t forget! For serious tasters and samplers, don’t forget a designated driver. need transportation for our wine, beer and spirits tours? call the Watkins glen area chamber of commerce— the official visitor’s center for schuyler county to get information on wine trail transportation!
