Visiting Finger Lakes, NY


The Finger Lakes are a beautiful, quiet respite from the rat race. There is little traffic, and the scenery around the lakes is breathtaking and peaceful. Wine aficionados may choose from several wine trails. Seneca is the largest and, some would argue, the best, but Keuka and Cayuga are also great. There are over 100 wineries along Keuka, Seneca, Cayuga and Canandaigua lakes. The region's micro-climate provides the ideal growing conditions for award-winning wines and sparkling wines.
