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.We will drive 1.5 hour to the park in the minium amount of cars needed. Once we spot the cars we will hike The Gorge Trail on the lower part of the park, west of the Genesee River, enjoying all the beauty along the way.
After our hike we will go to a diner for late lunch/ early dinner.
