Watkins Glen, Schuyler county, New York, U.S.A. on the south end of Seneca Lake, in the Finger Lakes region. Settled in 1791, it was incorporated 1842. It was renamed Watkins in 1852 to honor Dr. Samuel Watkins, an early promoter. “Glen” was added to its name in 1926. A spectacular gorge, emerging in the centre of the village, has been set aside as Watkins Glen State Park. A creek descends 600 feet through the 1.5-mile long gorge.
