Ithaca Wegman's is a sight-seeing destination for many! You can find most anything you might dream of in a large super-market. The fruit and vegetable display is worth the visit. Be prepared to spend more time and $$ than you intended...

Saturday and Sunday one of the best outings you can have in Ithaca is to the Farmer's Market. Wonderful array of food options to enjoy on the dock or by the water overlooking the inlet. Just a 5 minute walk!

The gorge hike from the top of the park is breath-taking! I love all three state parks within the 20-mile radius of Ithaca, but this is my favorite. A summer swim in the natural pool at the foot of a waterfall is an experience not to miss.

A 15 minute drive north along Cayuga Lake takes you to one of the 4 State Parks in the Ithaca area. Choose a trail that fits your challenge level and time frame, the views are inspiring, and the waterfall fantastic!
