Ithaca Guidebook
Sightseeing
Ithaca truly is "Gorges," there are endless sightseeing options, just a quick drive around town will prove to be. The city has over 150 waterfalls within 10 miles and the surrounding area was carved out of glaciers that formed the gorges millions of years ago!!
Quick trail close by our home, after morning coffee, take a walk to Sapsucker Woods Sanctuary where you can hike and bird watch. Home to Cornell Lab of Ornithology, this 220-acer sanctuary is a great spot to hike the wooded trail and learn about rare and endangered birds.

One of my local favorite spots in Ithaca to take in the beautiful sunset while admiring the willow trees. The park sits at the basin of Cayuga Lake and has some great trails to walk around or just sit by the bench and enjoy the beauty.
