Mitchellsville Gorge
Gorgeous Gorge on M-12
by Margaret and Ken Reek
The featured special place is Mitchellsville Gorge near Hammondsport. This is a delightful hike at any time of year, but will be especially so on a hot, sunny summer day, as you will be walking in a cool forest listening to the sounds of a lively creek that peeks in and out of your view. You can easily make this into a weekend trip, as there are many recreational and lodging opportunities in the immediate area.
