Traveling 559 miles the main Finger Lakes Trail connects the Catskills
with the Allegheny Mountains. This 4.0 mile portion of the Finger
Lakes Trail is also part of the North Country Trail and is primitive
in nature with a natural tread and boardwalk over wet areas. An
"Adirondack" style shelter is available for camping on a first
come-first served basis.
To reach Finger Lakes Trail from Watkins Glen New York, turn right
onto NY 414 north. At the Fourth Street intersection go about 9 miles
north and turn right on Mathews Road 0.5 mile before the Hector Ranger
Station. Travel 1.5 miles east to the Satterly Hill Road, turn right
and follow it for 3 miles to the Finger Lakes Trail sign on the east
side of the road.
