"Glimmerglass State Park, located eight miles outside the village of Cooperstown, overlooks Otsego Lake, the "Glimmerglass" of James Fenimore Cooper's Leatherstocking Tales. The rolling, partially-wooded terrain is host to a wide variety of wildlife. An uphill trail through the forest affords a spectacular view of Otsego Lake; the Beaver Pond and Woodland trails are picturesque and of interest for the variety of wildflowers, shrubs, ferns and mosses."
Glimmerglass Park is geocache friendly. They are hosting 6 caches in 2017 that are part of the Central Region Geocache Challenge. There are other caches as well. Two of the attractions at the park are Hyde Hall, an historic mansion, and a covered bridge. The beach is also a favorite place.
