Live conditions, resort and trail reports, how to get here, where to stay, and how to keep Ellicottville wild.
Ellicottville sits in the hills of Cattaraugus County in Western New York, about an hour south of Buffalo and its international airport. It is an easy drive from Rochester, Erie, Cleveland, and Pittsburgh, and a straightforward day from Toronto.
Once you arrive, you can park and walk. The village, lodging, and both resorts sit within minutes of each other.
From ski-in lodging to a village walk-up to a tent in the state park, pick your base camp. A full lodging guide is on the way.
Roll out of bed and onto the lift. Resort lodging and condos put first chair steps from your door.
Stay walkable. Village inns and rentals put dinner, coffee, and the shops right outside.
Allegany State Park adds cabins and campsites across 65,000 acres just south of town.
Official maps, live reports, and webcams from the resorts and public lands. Always check current conditions before you head out.
These trails, creeks, and forests stay wild because people take care of them. A few simple habits keep Ellicottville worth coming back to.
Ride and hike open, dry trails. Wet tread ruts easily and takes seasons to heal.
Keep fish wet, handle gently, and let them recover before you send them home.
Carry out everything you carry in. Leave no trace on public land.
Yield to uphill riders, respect volunteers, and give wildlife room.
