Glimmerglass State Park
The outdoors adventure all happens at Glimmerglass State Park, around Ostego Lake. James Fenimore Cooper set his Leatherstocking tales here. Hike the uphill trail through partly wooded terrain and gentle hills 8 miles outside the Cooperstown. The trail offers views of the lake and Beaver Pond. Flora and fauna are found in abundance, and is especially good for wildflowers, mosses and ferns. The Hyde Hall Mansion is here and a quaint covered bridge. Winter offers plenty of outdoor sport with cross-country skiing, ice skating and fishing and snowshoeing.
