 Rock City Park is one of the most beautiful natural features of the Olean Area. Apparently rock cities are a unique geological formation that are only found in this area of the United States and in a few northern European locations.
As often as you might visit, it is a place that will amaze and create wonder. It is as if a Mother Earth's finger touched down here.
