Five finger lakes is not a singel park. It include more than 5 parks. I suggest you go there on Thanks Giving Day long weekend, as this is a good route to see color changes.

Ann的私家攻略(Daisy给的)五指湖自助游攻略宋师兄给的美国纽约州芬格湖区逍遥游宋师兄给的美国五指湖游记也写一篇五指湖游记. (1)五指湖游记. (2)====================
Richard的建议 ====================
1. Letchworth State Park
Upper, Middle, and Lower Falls是摄点，注意要走Trail找理想的供图位置，秋色应该不错。
位置有些尴尬，所以可当作路过拍片了。
2. The Corning Museum of Glass
如果打算拍玻璃器皿小品的话，否则个人认为意义不大。
3. Cornell University
校园景色很美
贝聿铭设计的Rerbert F. Johnson Museum of Art 是参观重点
另外Cornell Plantations植物园(不是很大)也值得考虑
4. Taughannock Falls
夏天去很好玩，可走在宽阔而平坦的谷底顺着小溪一直走到瀑布。不知秋天情景怎么样
5. Watkin Glen State Park
重点之重点，也是你们应该安营扎寨的地方。从Camp经过略微陡峭的山坡是可以直接下到景点的。Camp非常大，所以预先知道横跨峡谷的三座小桥的位置好一些。
因为白天游人太多，拍摄的话一定要早晚自己去，白天带家人走就行了。
5. Waterloo Premium Outlets
LD们一定喜欢
6. 其他还有一些不错的地方，网上应该容易找到，主要是日程安排的问题
