Orleans County (New York) · Wikivoyage
Orleans County is in the Niagara Frontier region of New York. This rural county sandwiched between the 'big cities' of Buffalo and Rochester may not have the amenities or marquee attractions of its neighbors, but it makes for a serene and convenient getaway for travelers to Western New York.
With several creeks and streams perfect for fishing, quaint 19th-century villages with well-maintained historical attractions, a long Lake Ontario shoreline, and the famous Erie Canal, often-overlooked Orleans County can be a surprising re-discovery for intrepid travelers.
