4 Our delightful scenic trails offer you a wide variety of wonderful outdoor activities. Whatever your outdoor pleasure, you will fi nd it – and more – when you explore the beautiful rolling hills and picturesque valleys of Allegany County. Genesee Valley Greenway St. Park The Genesee Valley Greenway rolls through towns and countless landscapes from Rochester south to Cuba, New York. It takes you through Allegany, Cattaraugus, Livingston, Monroe, and Wyoming counties. The 68.8 mile greenway is a multi-surface work in progress, but there is a long, continuous segment (37 miles) between Rochester and Sonyea that provides an off-road experience. As of spring 2012, 60+ disconnected miles of the trail are open to the public; several more are planned that will link the disconnected sections.
