Popular Tourist Attractions

 

Robert H. Treman State Park

The Robert H. Treman State Park is a state park located along State Route 327, situated in the towns of Ithaca, Enfield, and Newfield. The park has numerous waterfalls along the rigorous 4.5 mile round-trip hike. Similar to many of the other state parks in the Finger Lakes region, the hiking trails follow a small creek, Enfield Creek in this case, providing many views of the rock formations. There is a natural swimming pool located at the easternmost waterfall called, “Lower Falls.” Because of the dangerous conditions created by snow and ice, most of the park’s trails are inaccessible in the winter but visitors can view Lower Falls at anytime of the year when they visit in an RV rental Ithaca New York.

Cornell Plantations

The Cornell Plantations are botanical gardens located adjacent to the Cornell University campus. The Plantations proper consist of 25 acres of botanical gardens and 150 acres of the F.R. Newman Arboretum. The greater Plantations include 40 different nature areas around Cornell and Ithaca, covering over 4,300 acres. It is one of the most recommended attractions, not only in Ithaca, but in the entire region of Central New York. There are numerous events held within the plantations such as concerts, the Arbor Day Fall in festival, the Cornell Reunion 5 Mile Run, and more. Visiting during the warmer seasons is preferable but the Plantations are beautiful either way when you visit in an RV rental near Ithaca NY.
