Bushkill Falls Red Trail

08/03/22

Bushkill Falls is a local tourist attraction. They do charge admission and it’s only open April- November. Also make sure to check operating hours before going. The trail starts in a developed area with boardwalks and stairs. You also see Bushkill Falls the largest of the waterfalls right away. It then continues looping around the property and passing a few other falls. The bulk of the trail is more of a traditional walking on dirt trail. While there are some roots and rocks it is nowhere near as rugged as the signs make it out to be. Not sure it’s worth the cost but the falls are prey and it’s a fairly quick and easy hike so will be assessable to hikers at a range of levels

Hike to Buttermilk Falls

The parking lot is a big dirt lot, so if it's raining or has rained, be prepared. The immediate falls are located mere steps from the parking lot, so on holiday weekends, be prepared for crowds. But if you walk around, up the stairs and over the bridges, you'll get different angels of the falls AND you'll link up with Buttermilk Falls trail (BLUE). From here you can connect with the trails to t...

Hike to Indian Ladder Falls Along Hornbecks Creek

For some time, the trail was eroded above the first falls on Hornbecks Creek, not allowing hikers to access the creek's upper falls if they were coming upstream from Route 209. I am writing this in June 2017 and that is no longer the case! You can hike from Rt. 209 all the way up the creek to Emery Road, and experience the creek's numerous beautiful waterfalls. On the day that I hiked Hornbecks...
