South and North Rim of Taughannock State Park

Start off by taking the "stairs" just to the left of the paved Gorge Trail. This starts the South Rim. Follow the signs to stay on the trail. You'll see many views of the canyon along the way. Once you get to the "end" you'll see the signs for the North Rim Trail. This trail is also well marked. Along this route you'll get some beautiful views of Taughannock Falls. You'll then come back to the end and have to use the side hike along the road to get back to your car.
