Corn Hill Navigation's Sam Patch packet boat docks at Pittsford's Schoen Place, a picturesque district of intriguing restaurants, cafés, boutiques, and businesses on the banks of the Erie Canal.
Where the Genesee River and Erie Canal intersect... pedestrian bridges cross the river to access both sides of the park.
The Greenway follows the Genesee River south ending in Cuba, NY. About 60 miles of trail are open, mostly between Rochester & Letchworth Park. GPS waypoints: http://www.fogvg.org/GVG-GPS-Waypoints.pdf
There is parking, picnic tables and grills. You could have a really nice lunch here.
A great history lesson and relaxing ride on the canal that opened the West.
The Colonial Belle's narrated tour will familiarize you with the rich history and many traditional landmarks along the scenic Erie Canal traveling west between Fairport and Pittsford.
There are numbered signs along the way, allowing you to do a self-guided walking tour. I highly recommend this, but be prepared for a lot of walking (and stair climbing)
Walk the entire underground, from South Ave and Court St near Dinosaur Barbecue to Broad St and Main St near Nick Tahou's. En savoir plus .
Get on the thruway at exit 41 and off at 40, then it only costs $.75 to visit the park- keep in mind this is the quickie version of the tour!
The best diner in Rochester! The food is consistently great and they have lots of daily specials. Cash only, but they do have an ATM.
Best place for pizza in Rochester, bar none. Arinchini are amazing. The red pizza sauce is just out of control.
