There is so much to see and do in this southern New York city that you’ll be amazed at the variety of options. If you want to experience some of the region's hills, then spend your afternoon at the Tanglewood Nature Center. With several trails winding through the park and an on-site nature center that houses live local animals, you can easily spend your day at Tanglewood. At the very least, be sure to take the long trail to the top of the hill so you can look down at the valley below. For something a little less common, spend some time at the National Soaring Museum. The museum is completely dedicated to the history and engineering of engineless flight. If you want to truly fly like a bird, you can make a reservation for a ride on a sailplane.

After a day of hiking the trails or soaring the skies, be sure to treat yourself to a truly local delicacy: spiedies. The specially marinated chicken served on an Italian roll is the go-to comfort food for people in Elmira and it surely will be for you too.
