Finger Lakes Attractions

Corning, America's Crystal City, is known for glass. Your Finger Lakes vacation wouldn't be complete without experiencing glass blowing for yourself at the Corning Museum of Glass.  If you haven't tried it before, blowing a glass ornament is as exciting as it is easy. And it's SO easy. Corning makes this unique experience even more out of the ordinary because Hands-on Glass Studio is the one place you can work some glassblowing magic with the woman who actually started the hands-on glass movement in the U.S.

Not too far away, the Rockwell Museum of Western Art brings together the colorful stories and scenes of the old west and contemporary Native American art. But it also brings together generations of people with its fun interactive activities.

Nationally recognized for its architecture, Corning's Gaffer District is the first wheelchair-friendly historic district in New York State. With 100+ cool shops, galleries, museums and restaurants the Gaffer District is the hub of the Crystal City. Our Experience Trails will offer adventure for any group. Enjoy a NY girlfriend getaway on the Chocolate Trail or a couples retreat on the Antique and Collectibles Trail. A Finger Lakes family vacation wouldn't be complete without exploring the Kids Adventure Trail in this must see historic area of the Finger Lakes Region.

Located about half an hour from Corning are a variety of Finger Lakes wineries. Whether you like dessert wines, sparkling fruit wines, elegant whites, smooth reds, or dry food-friendly wines, you'll find the perfect New York wine in the Hammondsport area. If wine isn't your thing, try a visit to the one of the many breweries in the Finger Lakes Region. You'll be sure to find a regional micro-brew that suits your taste perfectly.

The Finger Lakes Region is home to some of the most scenic views in all of upstate New York State. With gorgeous waterfalls, hiking trails and Keuka Lake, Corning and the Finger Lakes Region are an ideal vacation destination for any age.
