Hi guys was wondering if anyone had exact info for directions to Letchworth Knappin...I know its in Castile and it wasnt far from the Cuba Knappin but would like to type it in and go. I live about 4 hour or so away maybe more and havent a clue of that area so it would help... Thanx guys and hope to see some of u there.

Russell and anyone else Here is a link to directions from the East and South. The Knap-in is held in the High Banks Recreation area of the Park which is at the North End of the Park. Do not enter the Park from the Southern end You will wish you hadn't. Its a very long drive to the North end . Like Jeff said Take sometime to check out the Canyon Gorge. Just beautiful.

When you get to the link just type in your starting address.
Wow thats long
The Park entrance is from the intersection of Park Rd and MT Morris road, Be sure your search results bring you in from there.

Andy, its only the largest Knappin in the Northeast the whole year long, in on of the prettiest parks in the North east.. If you are within driving distance you should come out.
