I traveled to the town of Watkins Glen on the second day of my New York trip. I didn’t realize until I got back home that Watkins Glen is pretty well known for its racetrack and the Watkins Glen International. I wasn’t there for car racing…. I was interested in Watkins Glen State Park. It’s an interesting entry into the State Park and the glen (gorge). As you pull off route 414 directly in town to enter the State Park, the gorge bridge is looming over the end of the parking lot! It’s right in your face off the main driving route! I’m not going to go into many details here as I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves. Just a note….. this place is AWESOME!!! It looks like something out of Lord of the Rings! Definite must for any landscape photographers out there. It’s a dream….. The only thing I am disappointed with is that most of the glen trail was closed when I was there as the season is still early and they were cleaning up the winter debris.
