So I suck at thinking of stuff today, so I figured it would help everyone that sucks as much as me to start a list of things to do in the buffalo area…mainly it would be nice to just come here and figure out what to do with my girlfriend when we can’t think of something. Stuff that is cheaper is better, but I don’t mind dropping a little coin sometimes… i just usually can’t think of anything exciting, haha -Niawanda park, glen park, buckhorn, beaver island, etc… -The falls -Movie -Hockey game (or whatever other sports…) -Albright Knox -Zoo … ---

About the same distance as Zoar Valley is Griffith Sculpture Park, and Little Rock city. Both cool if you want a little outdoor action. Get outside now before winter rolls around and you’re really pressed for things to do besides drink, ski or watch television. ---

Go to any park and have a picnic, walk or bike around too, chestnut ridge/emery park/letchworth and etc. Wine tours in the southertier (Chataqua County), great to do in the fall, see all the foliage, and you can taste wines all day for practically nothing. Its also a great way to find your tastes in wines if you are not certain what you like. Find a private spot along lake erie on the beach and chill out there. 😉 Go for a drive in the fall to ellicottville to check out the leaves, and walk through the shops. In the winter go sledding, Chestnut ridge… more money=skiing, or tubing at colden tubing co. ---

I second the motion for either Zoar valley, Griffis sculpture park or Ellicottville, all good times. Zoar is free other than gas to get there, the sculpture park only asks for a small donation once you go to the other side of the hill and Ellicottville can be cheap or very expensive it all depends on how you do things out there. ---

I go downtown and tease the bums. Then I go to the country and invite myself to a party, get rocked on some shine and drive home. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/things-to-do-in-buffalo/2239.md?page=2)
