Travel with Yvonne's video: Letchworth State Park NY Indian Summer Grand Canyon of the East

@Letchworth State Park, NY ♥️ Indian Summer ♥️ Grand Canyon of the East
Letchworth State Park is a 14,427-acre (5,838 ha) state park located in Livingston and Wyoming counties, New York. The park is roughly 17 miles (27 km) long, following the course of the Genesee River as it flows north through a deep gorge and over several large waterfalls.[6] It is located 35 miles (56 km) southwest of Rochester and 60 miles (97 km) southeast of Buffalo, and spans portions of the Livingston County towns of Leicester, Mount Morris, and Portage, as well as the Wyoming County towns of Castile and Genesee Falls. In 1859, industrialist William Pryor Letchworth (1823–1910) began purchasing land near the Middle Falls, and started construction of his Glen Iris Estate. In 1906 he bequeathed the 1,000-acre (4 km2) estate to New York, which soon after became the core of the newly created Letchworth State Park. The park prominently features three large waterfalls – the Upper, Middle, and Lower Falls – on the Genesee River, which flows within a deep gorge that winds through the park. The rock walls of the gorge, which rise up to 550 feet (170 m) in places, prompted the area's reputation as the "Grand Canyon of the East". Wikipedia Der Letchworth State Park liegt im Westen des US-Bundesstaates New York, etwa 55 km südlich der Stadt Rochester. Er erstreckt sich in Nordost-Südwestrichtung über eine Länge von etwa 24 km beidseits des Genesee River und umfasst eine Fläche von fast 60 km². Drei Wasserfälle im Süden des Parks - Upper, Middle und Lower Falls - und die bis zu 200 m hohen Steilufer haben diesem Teil des Parks den Namen "Grand Canyon of the East" eingetragen. Der Middle Falls hat eine Höhe von über 30 m und ist nach einer alten Seneca - Legende so wundervoll, dass selbst die Sonne jeden Mittag im Zenit stehen bleibt, um ihn zu bewundern. Etwas flussaufwärts von "Ska-ga-dee", wie der Middle Falls von den Seneca genannt wird, überspannt in atemberaubender Höhe die Portage Bridge der Erie Lackawanna Eisenbahnlinie die Schlucht. Daneben gibt es im Park noch ungefähr 50 weitere kleinere Wasserfälle, darunter auch an einem kleinen Nebenfluss den Inspiration Falls, den mit 107 m Fallhöhe tiefsten Wasserfall des Bundesstaates New York.
