Our hometown
communities are just off western New York's only north-southbound
four lane expressway, Interstate-390 (exits 4-10). Livingston County
is also easy to get to from exits 45-47 from the New York State
Thruway, making natural choices even more convenient for motor coach
tours and family vacations through the Finger Lakes and Western
New York.
Livingston
County is within a one hour drive south of Rochester, north of Corning
Glass, and east of Niagara Falls. The County is nestled in the heart
of the beautiful Genesee River Valley in the Finger Lakes Region.

If
celebrating our rich heritage is to your liking, we suggest
Avon's Five Arch Bridge, which served to promote commerce
in the early years of our County's development. You may wish
to stroll along the streets in the Village of Geneseo with
its friendly college town atmosphere or shop the antique shops
along the Routes 5&20 trail from Caledonia to Lima. The
American Red Cross was founded right here and you can visit
Clara Barton Chapter Number One in Dansville where it all
began. Come see and feed the fish at New York State's oldest
fish hatchery in Caledonia, then smell the heavenly aroma
of our famous Monks Bread baked by the Trappist Monks in the
Abbey of the Genesee in Piffard.

Every year,
over one million people visit Letchworth State Park to take in the
breathtaking gorges, colorful foliage, and extensive trail system.
The park also offers picnicking, swimming, and unique sightseeing
all year long.
Letchworth
State Park
On the
other side of Letchworth Park in historic Mount Morris,
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers operates the Mount Morris
Dam. Free public tours are available to groups of any size.
In 1999, a state-of-the-art Visitors Center opened. Also
in Mount Morris, visitors can see the home of the author
of the "Pledge of Allegiance," Francis Bellamy,
or tour the distinguished Mills Mansion.

Two Finger
Lakes are located in Livingston County - Conesus and Hemlock
Lakes have public access and are near communities that offer
unique shopping and dining experiences. On Conesus Lake, two
community parks are available for public use: Vitale Park
at the northern tip and Long Point Park on the western shore.

There
are public boat launches on both lakes. The lake communities
of Hemlock, Conesus, Lakeville and Livonia offer a variety of
goods and services to visitors. |

The great
outdoors is important to the people of Livingston County.
We have 24 waterways including trout streams, ponds, lakes
and the Genesee River. The state's oldest fish hatchery was
founded in Caledonia by Seth Green in 1870. To this day, families
come to the hatchery to see the varieties of fish and to enjoy
the groomed pathways behind the main buildings.

In
September, thousands of outdoor enthusiasts come to the annual
Hunting and Fishing Days at the NYS Department of Environmental
Conversation offices in East Avon. The event features hunting,
fishing, and camping demonstrations. |
