| The Road to Camp
LOCATION
Whispering Pines College Camp is in hilly, forested southwestern New York State. The camp lodges are on Raub Road, off NY Route 16, south of the Village of Franklinville and north of Ischua and Olean. It is about 65 miles from Buffalo (travel time from campus is about 90 minutes).
DIRECTIONS
To get there from Buffalo State, take the Scajaquada Expressway (198) to Route 33 East, and proceed to the NYS Thruway.
Travel west on the Thruway (toward Erie) to Route 400, and then south on 400 until it becomes Route 16.
Continue on 16 through Holland, Delevan, Machias, and Franklinville. Raub Road is a left turn about 5.5 miles from the Franklinville signal. Whispering Pines is a right turn about a mile-and-a-half up Raub.
NOTE: The map at left is not to scale.
If you need more detailed directions, or are having difficulty relating these directions to a different departure point, try one of the on-line mapping services (Mapquest, Google, Yahoo, etc.). However, if you do, BEWARE: the database these programs use does not give you the correct location of the camp's address. We recommend that you use the intersection of Route 16 and Raub Road and the zip code 14737 as your destination. Once you reach that point the camp is 1.5 miles up Raub.
