RV rental Watkins Glen State Park, NY: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

There’s plenty to see and do in Watkins Glen State Park, but the one attraction that every visitor should be sure to check out is the Gorge Trail. This iconic trail runs for one and a half miles alongside the glen, leading you through towering cliffs and past otherworldly natural scenery on one truly memorable hike. Along the way, you’ll see the many attractions for which the park is famous. These include the vast expanse of Glen Cathedral with its natural pool and the astonishing beauty of Rainbow Falls. However, you’ll need to climb more than 800 stone steps along the way, so a decent level of physical fitness is required. There are 19 waterfalls in total along the trail, which should give you plenty of chances to work on your photography skills. Whether you’re a photographer by trade or just looking to get the perfect shot for your vacation scrapbook, you’ll constantly be stopping to capture the breathtaking vistas that continue to appear as you hike along the trail. Once you’ve admired the remarkable glen from every angle, you may want to explore the region surrounding the park. If you’re a keen angler, you’ll no doubt be drawn to Catherine Creek and its spring-time population of rainbow trout. Seneca Lake is also a famous fishing destination, particularly for trout and largemouth or smallmouth bass. Seneca Lake also boasts another big highlight: excellent wineries. You’ll find a host of well-known wineries near the lake’s southern end, so it’s well worth touring around the area to sample a few local drops at the cellar door.
