Welcome to Ithaca, NY

New on Facebook:
Spring Webcams!
We've got a beautiful spring unfolding here in Ithaca, NY and you can watch it live from webcams at Cornell University, Downtown Ithaca and a Great Blue Heron nest in Sapsucker Woods Preserve. Great spring events to talk about, too. Ithaca is Gorges on Facebook!

Five hundred generations ago, glaciers a mile high surrendered to a landscape of crystal lakes, jagged gorges and thundering waterfalls. Today Ithaca, NY is green with vineyards and farms. It's lush with gentle hills and wild forest. It's lively with villages and energized by people who love the sights, sounds and flavors of a region still unspoiled.

Plan your visit to Ithaca and Tompkins County, gateway to the Finger Lakes.
