What is the Chemung River Greenway?
The Chemung River Greenway is a 40-mile pedestrian and bicycle multi-use trail proposed for Chemung and Steuben counties, New York. The trail will provide residents and visitors with opportunities for recreation and active transportation. The proposed greenway links communities with natural preserves, critical facilities, schools, recreational facilities, and tourism assets.
