Niagara Falls - The American Side - Waterfall and Camping Guide

Niagara Falls is the oldest State Park in the country, being established in 1885. Like Watkins Glen, I could have stayed all day at the falls just taking in the beauty and the majesty of the water and the rock formations. Niagara Falls State Park was designed by Frederick Law Olmstead, the father of landscape architecture, who also designed the Biltmore Estate link to YouTube in Asheville, NC, and Central Park, NY. This park is about 400 acres of rapids, waterfalls, islands, 15 miles of hiking trails, and the Niagara Gorge.

Take the Easier Way - How to Hike Watkins Glen State Park

Watkins Glen is a state park in the New York Finger Lakes region located in Watkins Glen, NY, about one and a half hours south of Rochester. The park itself is less than two square miles, but don’t let that fool you. The 19 waterfalls and 400-foot deep gorge are spectacular. And yes, this can be a challenging hike, with many steps to get up into the falls area. However, there is an easier way, and a harder way. Let me share with you the easier way, some of the amazing sights you will experience along your path, and a few tips that will make your day much more enjoyable.

The Road to Nuttallburg, West Virginia

Nuttallburg is one of the abandoned coal mines and towns that is part of the New River Gorge National Park. The town is considered to be one of the best-preserved examples of a coal mining town in the US. There were originally over 100 houses, 80 coke ovens, and a coal tipple with access to the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad. But, you are taking a great chance of having to interact with another car, either on the way down or the way up, and you may end up like I did, waiting for a tow truck to pull me back onto the road.
