The Finger Lakes Travel Guide

The 11 parallel Finger Lakes stretch like narrow north-south slashes across western central New York. Their names evoke the tribes of the Iroquois Confederacy that dominated the area for more than two centuries. From east to west, the lakes are Otisco, Skaneateles, Owasco, Cayuga, Seneca, Keuka, Canandaigua, Honeoye, Canadice, Hemlock, and Conesus.
