NOTE: THIS HIKE IS EXTREME IN TERMS OF DISTANCE AND PACE. Another Letchworth State Park hike will be hosted in September which will be moderate in pace and distance, thereby appealing to the average interest of this hiking community.Letchworth State Park, renowned as the “Grand Canyon of the East,” is one of the most scenically magnificent areas in the eastern U.S. The Genesee River roars through the gorge over three major waterfalls between cliffs–as high as 600 feet in some places–surrounded by lush forests.
The plan is to meeting in Fort Erie at 6am and carpool 1.5 hours to Letchworth State Park. At that point we will need to spot cars at either end of the park, taking approximately 1 hour. Hikers must be able to hike 4.5 km/hour to cover 35 km over a 8-8.5 hour period. There is an overall 1820 feet elevation gain along the trail. The Letchworth Trail is a branch of the FLT.

Proper documentation for travel to the USA is required. Costs for gas, tolls and park entrance will be shared amongst participants in the vehicle that you will be car pooling in.
