As you drive around the state of New York, you’ll find that there are so many beautiful scenic byways and stunning back roads that are great for traveling along. While sometimes we may just be in need of hitting the open road until we find ourselves back home again, sometimes we like to enjoy a long drive simply to see what we can discover along the way. Easily convincing you to pull over with just one glance, see why it’s impossible to drive along Route 20 in Central New York without pulling over to see this one roadside attraction.

Sticking out like the best sore thumb that you've ever encountered, right along Route 20 you can find one of New York's most charming roadside attractions - The Tepee.
