SALAMANCA - Join Allegany State Park every Wednesday evening in January and February at 4:30pm for a trek into the sunset. Park Naturalists will lead interpretive snowshoe treks, or hikes if there is not enough snow. Witness a breathtaking winter sunset at Stone Tower, visit a secret beaver pond or hike along a creek. Be sure to dress for the weather, bring a flashlight, water, a snack, and a sense of adventure.
Need snowshoes? No problem! The park has several pairs to use during the program for FREE! Please call to reserve snowshoes by noon the day of each hike. For more information contact the Environmental Education/Recreation Department at 716-354-6263.
