I've been trying to get here for the last 4 years that my son was a student at SUNY Oswego, we…read morefinally had enough time to make the drive out here. Great hidden gem waterfall with ample parking and a flat very well-maintained trail with two viewpoints. We did not go down to the gorge trail, but did walk down the stairs to the top of the falls. DO NOT walk anywhere that looks wet as it's VERY slippery.

Love it here! I've been here a few times and always love the views!…read more It's a great spot to hike and see the waterfall views. The trail is pretty easy and you can walk down to the top of the waterfalls or on the side of it. I'd definitely stop back here again.

But it's a spectacular Park in Syracuse that is the highlight of the inner city SYR area. I like it even more than I like being Onondated by Dating prospects. This wonderful wooded park space is large and gorgeous much like my girlfriend. There are two sections, Upper and Lower, and both are lovely. Definitely the most relaxing place to hang out and people watch during the summer in the inner city area, and bettered only by Onondaga Lake Park (totally different) in the wider region.

My wife, two teenage sons, miniature poodle, and I visited this state park on a hot day in July…read more2025. We parked on the East Bay Drive entrance (which has a very steep but short climb to view the bluffs). Please note the east entrance to the Bluff Trail has a limited number of parking spots with two porta-potty units instead of a full restroom. This is NOT the main entrance to the state park (which offers a larger parking lot and picnic benches). Although we did not have enough time to explore the other sections of the park or walk the full 1.3 miles of the Bluff Trail, I think the dramatic view of the drumlins with Lake Ontario in the background was more than worth the 1 hour drive from Penn Yan (on Keuka Lake) where we stayed for vacation. Another benefit of parking on the east end of the Bluff trail is that you have convenient walking access to Dragon View Beach (a popular spot to go swimming in the summer).

Clean restrooms even in the off season. Nice group of trails and some great geological history for…read morethe earth science crowd.

Cute NY State park with a beautiful and accessible falls overlook without strenuous hiking…read morerequired. However, I recommend a partial climb downward to a mid- overlook to view the entire falls without obstruction. Bathrooms, picnic tables, playgrounds are provided and relatively clean.

The weather was a little cool but blue, sunny skies. The lake was sparkling and we walked for miles around the trails.
