Chenango Valley State Park

Two Lakes With an Ice Age Story

Discover

Chenango Valley State Park's Lily and Chenango lakes occupy hollows left as buried glacial ice melted. That geological history adds another dimension to the woodland and lakeside scenery. Follow a trail with the landscape's origins in mind, looking at the water as part of a story much older than the park.

Social

Lily and Chenango lakes hold an Ice Age story. At Chenango Valley, a woodland walk becomes a chance to think about how vanished ice shaped the landscape still here.

Does knowing a landscape's origin change how you see it?
