About the Finger Lakes Trail
The Finger Lakes Trail (in short FLT) is a long-distance hiking trail in the state of New York, United States. Some also refer to it as a trail system instead of a single hiking trail because it also contains at least 6 different side trails that branch off in multiple directions. It spans pretty much across the whole state of New York, from Niagara Falls in the west to the Ashokan Reservoir in the East. It's probably the most popular thru-hiking trail in New York.
