New York Day Trips
California, New York State is the secondlargest wineproducing state in
North America, with more than 240 wineries producing awardwinning labels. Visitors can visit America's oldest continuously operating winery, the Brotherhood Winery, dating from 1839.
The Finger Lakes are synonymous with rolling hills, vineyards and spectacular views as far as the eye can see. Glacial lakes, deep gorges, sparkling streams and waterfalls combine with historic landmarks and quaint, canalside villages to make this region a great escape from the heat of the city.
Worldrenowned museums and performing arts centres are found in vibrant cities, while sunlit vineyards snuggle up to unspoiled forests. Follow a scenic wine trail and discover why the Finger Lakes wins rave reviews.
This fabulous landscape boasts many attractive scenic byways and dedicated biking trails. Cyclists should not miss the journey from Grand Gorge in the northern end of the county through Roxbury, a historic town on the National Register of Historic Places, on to the village line of Margaretville. The onroad biking experience is a rewarding one, with picturesque mountain views and challenging uphill treks.
For a more relaxed journey, the Catskill Scenic Trail is a 19mile trail constructed on the rail bed of the formerDelaware Railroad. This historic trail winds its way across the level terrain, over streams and through forests and farmland. It's a great ride for all ages and fitness levels.

Stretching from Albany to the terminus in Buffalo, where the canal empties into Lake Erie, the 363mile waterway can be navigated by barge or pleasure boat and boasts miles of bike and hiking paths, in addition to parks and historic sites.
Famed for its unpretentiousness and unhurried simplicity, and located only 125 miles from New York City, Montauk is on the easternmost tip of Long Island. Both city types and internationals with a sense of adventure flock to Montauk to explore the six seaside state parks and view historic Montauk Lighthouse, constructed in 1796 on the order of President George Washington.
Like its ritzy sister South Hampton,[url=http://www.sport.fr/economie/airmax.html]chaussure air max[/url], Montauk does receive its share of rich and famous visitors, but discretion rules the day here, as does seafood and surfing. There are few luxury yachts docked in this thriving fishing village. Rather, visitors are more likely to find welldressed bohemian types in flipflops, sporting vintage Land Rovers with surfboards on the roof, all set to a soundtrack of
