Christened “The Niagara of Pennsylvania,” Bushkill Falls features eight waterfalls cascading over the primeval rocks and slate walls that form the uplands of the Pocono Mountains. As one of Pennsylvania’s most beautiful and dramatic natural sights, Bushkill Falls makes an ideal daytrip for hikers and great singles and family weekend getaway.
A visit to Bushkill is a journey into the beauty, power and grace of nature. Two streams flowing down the mountainside feed the eight waterfalls. Trails and bridges wind through the area—affording incredible views of the falls—into a lush, emerald green forest.
The majestic main waterfall drops over the edge of a 100-foot cliff into a pool banked by ferns, mosses and wildflowers. From there, the falls drop another 70 feet through a long gorge strewn with gigantic boulders.
Set on 300 acres, Bushkill also features gift shops, mini-golf, paddle boats and a children’s playground providing fun for all and all for fun.
April 12 marked opening day of the 2014 season so strap on some hiking boots and hit the trails!
