How to get out Ithaca (New York)
Stewart Park, Buttermilk Falls, Treman State Park and Six-mile Park all offer nice walking/hiking trails. Some have parking fees on weekends and during high season. Cross country skiing is permitted on the golf course in winter. Treman State Park offers a large marina, and there is a large fenced off-leash dog park nearby.
There are two outdoor stores in the downtown Ithaca area. The Outdoor Store (206 E State St, Ithaca, NY 14850 (607) 273-3891) on the Commons and Eastern Mountain Sports (722 South Meadow Street Ithaca, NY 14850 (607) 272-1935) on Route 13 South (about 500 yards south of Wegmans.)
