What is the lake in Ithaca?

Last updated March 22, 2021 by ZagBot Comment

The city of Ithaca, New York, sits at the south end of Cayuga Lake, one of the Finger Lakes of New York state.

Cayuga Lake is the longest of the state’s glacial Finger Lakes, so named because of their long, narrow shape, formed in an overdeepened glacial valley, and it is the second largest in surface area and volume. It stretches for 38 miles (or 61 kilometers) up to Seneca Falls, with an average width of 1.7 miles (or 2.7 kilometers).

The main tributaries flowing into Cayuga Lake at Ithaca are the Cayuga Inlet, Fall Creek, Williams Brook, and Renwick Brook.
