Wayne County, NY, sites and attractions are featured in some of the 12 new Great Lakes Seaway Trail scenic byway driving itineraries. The itineraries were recently distributed to more than 1,500 domestic and international travel buyers from 70 countries at the Travel Association of America International Pow Wow Marketplace event in San Francisco. The annual event generates more than $3.5 billion in future U.S. travel expenditures.
Some of the Wayne County sites in the new itineraries are Ailing Coverlet Museum, B. Forman Park, Burnap’s Farm Market & Garden Cafe, Chimney Bluffs State Park, Heluva Good Cheese Country Store, Long Acres Farm, Pultneyville, and Sodus Bay Lighthouse.
The itineraries were developed in partnership with I Love NY Division of Tourism and the 11 Great Lakes Seaway Trail county tourism promotion agencies (10 in NYS, 1 in PA).
The itineraries focus on themed travel opportunities:
“These byway-branded itineraries represent unique “only on the Great Lakes Seaway Trail” travel experiences on a premier American national scenic byway touring destination,” Mitchell says.
The Great Lakes Seaway Trail is the 518-mile-long National Scenic Byway that parallels the freshwater shoreline of the St. Lawrence River, Lake Ontario, the Niagara River and Lake Erie in New York and Pennsylvania. The new Great Lakes Seaway Trail itineraries are posted online at www.seawaytrail.com/roadtrips.
