Grimes Glen

Reviewed By DygertTravelUnlimite

Kind of out of the way...but worth the effort. This short hike has some nice waterfalls and a beautiful ravine. Comfort facilities at the beginning of trail. Uneven surfaces makes the hike more challenging for some. Highly recommend!

Ithaca Waterfalls

Reviewed By PghMiss - Pittsburgh, United States

Driving through Ithaca to another falls area and we crossed a bridge only to see these beautiful falls on one side! Nearby parking allows for a view from the street and a short walk down a gravel like path takes you right to the falls! The water falls were flowing but the water level was low so you could easily explore the rocky banks of the river! Semi crowded but most people were wearing masks and keeping distance so I would recommend stopping by!

Carpenter Falls

Reviewed By BuBmv1 - Pittstown, United States

We needed to kill some time prior to checking into to our hotel and found this park on the map by chance. We were there on a holiday Monday, but still only saw 3 people in the park. It was a little challenging to stay on trail and understand the loop, but the water falls and natural beauty FAR outweighed any concerns with this hidden gem of a hike.

Triphammer Falls

Reviewed By eaglesnesttraveler - Hammonton, United States

Be sure to order a Guide to visiting Ithaca. This is one of the top 10 waterfalls to see in Ithaca area. It's at the dam/Beebe lake. Nice bridge from which to view it
