Hiking in the Genesee River Basin
There are wonderful hiking opportunities in the Genesee River Basin. We have provided descriptions of trails that are -as a rule – less well traveled. Pick one and enjoy the natural beauty of the Genesee Region!

The Genesee River Basin is filled with natural beauty and abundant wildlife. Whether you are looking for a woodland or riverside walk, an experience paddling on the River or relaxing time fishing…the Genesee has something to offer.
