Now that December is here, the air is getting crisper and the trees look bare. As soon as the dropping temperature brings white fluffy snow with it, some of our favorite activities to do in the Finger Lakes region will become a little more difficult, so make sure to check out these cool places before its too late!
1. Are you a hiker? Into nature walks? Visit Watkins Glen State Park, where you can you can walk along the gorge path that weaves through nineteen different waterfalls and 200-foot cliffs.
2. Take a stroll by the lake and visit the Bozzuto Boathouse before the snowfall masks the beautiful view. If you are an early riser, wake up to see the sun rise over the lake one morning.
3. Hungry for some local foods? Stop by the F.L.X. Weinery in the heart of the Finger Lakes Wine Trail on your way to Watkins Glen. A comfortable hang out for locals and visitors, the F.L.X.
