Keuka Outlet Trail

10/14/2026

A little trail love to celebrate! 💚

The Keuka Outlet Trail was recently included in the New York Times 36 Hours in the Finger Lakes itinerary, and you've also voted it Best of 2026 for Parks & Recreation in our local Best of contest in the The Chronicle-Express!

We're grateful for both the wider recognition and the local love. The trail is a special part of our community, and keeping it a place people can enjoy takes care, time, and people who believe in it.

Thank you to everyone who walks, runs, explores, volunteers, and supports the Keuka Outlet Trail and the Friends of the Outlet. We're glad you're part of it.

We were honored to receive the Norman Snow Award at the Yates County Chamber of Commerce Annual Dinner!

We’re grateful for this recognition and for the many volunteers, members, supporters, and community partners who have helped Friends of the Outlet care for and improve the outlet trail over the years.

Thank you to the Chamber for this honor and to everyone who has helped make the Outlet Trail the special place it is today.

We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished together.

Cascade Mills Falls.

Historic. Invigorating.

A little reminder to pause along the way.

If you’re looking for us, we’ll be on the Outlet Trail.

Or in a live stream.
