A few weeks ago I posted a blog (Check it out here)
about all of the "common" things I have never done. One of those things
was camping. I added it to my list of things to do this summer. I got a
huge surprise this past weekend, and was able to cross it off. Me and
my sweetie went to Watkins Glen State Park. It was such a beautiful
weekend and the park was gorgeous.
Watkins Glen is a great place to visit regardless if you are camping or just looking for a beautiful place to hike. There are many trail options as well as picnic areas and playgrounds. There was even a wedding going on while we were there this weekend! Next time you are in central New York I recommend this. I am lucky enough to have this in my backyard.
My favorite part about this park is the gorge trail. The waterfalls are stunning and I got a workout. I really had an amazing experience. Everything went smooth and it was the perfect pick for my first time. I think the only thing I would change on my next experience is packing an air mattress or more padding. My back HATES me today!

The scenery was beautiful. Here's a glimpse of how my first camping experience went!
I love the gorge trail! This basin is shaped like a heart.

I also forgot to mention, I forgot alcohol. Who does that?! Next camping trip will def include some alcoholic beverages! So glad my first experience went good. Can't wait for the next!
What did you all do this weekend? Have you ever been camping? Did you love it? Hate it? Why?
