The 16,176-acre Finger Lakes National Forest offers plenty of room to roam on the ridges between Seneca and Cayuga lakes in the beautiful Finger Lakes region. The cities of Rochester, Syracuse and Binghamton are within a two-hour drive of the forest. There are more than 30 miles of interconnecting trails, including the twelve-mile Interloken National Recreation Trail and four miles of the Finger Lakes/North Country National Scenic Trail.

Visitors find spacious pastures, cool ravines, ponds, wildlife and scenic forest roads. Two acres of blueberries are cultivated next to the Blueberry Patch Campground. There are two other campgrounds, including one designed for horseback riders.
