Indian Trail in Watkins Glen State Park

The Indian Trail in Watkins Glen State Park offers a more peaceful route compared to the park's main gorge trail. It meanders along the north rim of the gorge, providing distant views of the impressive rock formations and waterfalls like Rainbow Falls below. Notably, hikers will cross a suspension bridge, which offers a striking perspective of the gorge, and pass through shaded woodland areas. While the scenery is lovely, it is less dramatic than the waterfalls and steep cliffs along the Gorge Trail, making it an ideal option for those seeking a more serene hiking experience. #Hiking #Gorge #Waterfall #Nature #River #Forest #Cliff #Canyon #Rock
