First Day Hike

Wednesday, January 1, 2025 10:00 AM - 04:00 PM

Start off the New Year by making a healthy resolution you will love to keep: a breathtaking hike to Taughannock Falls on the Gorge Trail! If you are up for more of a challenge, you can continue up to the Overlook on the North Rim trail, across to the multi-use trails and then make your way back to the parking lot. Fun facts and park trivia signs will be placed along the trails. Plan on being outside for at least an hour (more if you hike all five miles), please dress for the weather, bring water and wear appropriate footwear. Park staff will greet hikers at the start of the Gorge Trail by NYS Route 89. Meet-up Location: Gorge Trail Parking Lot, Approximate distance of hike: 1.5 - 5 miles, Leashed pets welcome.
Registration: Not required
