East Ithaca Recreation Way is a multipurpose, paved, commuter trail consisting of several sections built on an abandoned railroad bed on East Hill.  The total length of the trail is 2.4 miles and runs through Cornell-owned natural areas along the Cascadilla Creek near Game Farm Road.  This trail will be connected to the future Pew Trail in the Snyder Hill neighborhood.  Many benches exist along the trail, providing hikers and jogger’s areas to rest.
