Hikes and Bike trails near Ithaca
Hiking is a must while in Ithaca, especially while chasing waterfalls. Regardless of the time of year that you’re here, the waterfalls are stunning. Ithaca Falls, Buttermilk Falls State Park, and Taughannock Falls State Park should all be on your radar while in the city. In the warmer months, you can swim next to waterfalls Robert H. Treman State Park and Buttermilk Falls while in the cooler months, the falls freeze over, creating stunning natural icy landscapes.
