PLAN YOUR
TRIP ON THE BYWAY

Upper Delaware Scenic Byway logo

"One of the most scenic drives
in the region."

The Upper Delaware Scenic Byway was officially added to the New York State Scenic Byways System on August 6, 2002. The now, 70 mile stretch of 97 North encompasses rolling hills, long vistas and impressive rock formations. The scenic drive leads passengers through a series of hamlets and small towns that are full of history, charisma and charm. It is our goal, as an organization, to continue to protect the region’s outstanding character, heritage, and beauty, while encouraging economic growth through tourism and recreation.
