Watkins Glen State Park is located in the village of Watkins Glen, in New York's Finger Lakes region. The park's lower part is near the village, while the upper part is open woodland. It was opened to the public in 1863 and was privately run as a tourist resort until 1906, when it was purchased by New York State. The centerpiece of the 778-acre park is a 400-foot-deep narrow gorge cut through rock by a stream, Glen Creek, that was left hanging when glaciers of the Ice age deepened the Seneca valley. The rocks of the area are sedimentary part of a dissected plateau consisting mostly of soft shales, with some layers of harder sandstone and limestone. Trails run along the wooded rim of the gorge, and run over, under and along the park's 19 waterfalls by way of stone bridges and more than 800 stone steps.—Wikipedia
