A Great New York RV Route I am from New York and after having traveled across most of the country with my family on road trips here is my favorite routes close to home to follow so whether you just purchased an RV or if you are an old veteran here are great places to visit. Niagara Falls and West New York Travel through across the state of New York enjoying the sites along the way. The trip comes out to around 330 miles and 5 ½ hours of driving. Start: Albany
The capitol of New York has plenty to offer and quite a variety. If you are a history buff hit up the New York State museum which features changing exhibits from the early inhabitants of the state to modern inventions as well as a number of exhibits for kids. A nice perk about the museum is that is free! Visit the Egg! Named for its shape the building is a performing arts venue that offers a variety of music styles in concert. Check their schedule so you arrive to hear someone you enjoy. You can also hit up the Palace theatre for similar events Make sure to grab something to eat. Being from New York I am sickened by the gross package of “NY style” cheesecake at Wal-Mart. If you want the real thing stop at Cheesecake Machismo and get a real taste of New York
Stop 2: Syracuse (145 miles 2 hrs)
Visit Buttermilk Farms where the nearby waterfalls look like buttermilk and if you are feeling like a swim jump in at the base of the falls. There are trails up into the woods for a more scenic view that includes some awesome gorges Stop at Dinosaur Barbeque (most iconic restaurant of the city) and order some ribs, chili, beer and then relax. Very unique restaurant with a blues feel to it. If you are a sports fan stop by the Dome for a Cuse basketball game, dress in orange, and grab a hotdog and get ready to cheer.
Stop 3: Palmyra (67 miles 1 hour 7 mins)
Jump in the car and keep heading west making sure to stop in Palmyra, a small town with some awesome events. The most noteworthy is the Hill Cumorah pageant; an enormous outdoor play on the side of a hill put on by the LDS church explaining the story of the Book of Mormon. Regardless if you are interested in the religion stop by to watch a play filled with water and fire
