The trailhead is located right off NY Route 89 with plenty of parking just across the street from it. Be sure to take your camera and tripod because these 215 ft tall falls are a sight to see!
The hike to the base of the falls is a very easy 1.5 miles out and back. In the summer months the trail is well shaded and has plenty of places along the trail to cool off in the stream or wait until the end and catch the refreshing mist from the falls! Fall months in New York are some of the best colors you'll experience but often hard to plan for since peak colors last only about 2 weeks and change from year to year.

These falls are awesome! You are not allowed to swim under the falls, but you walk right next to the river on the gorge trail and swimming/wading is permitted there. You can also visit Seneca Lake while you're here. The lake is right across the road from the trail. Beautiful area!
