Little Falls Trail at Promised Land State Park

Start here

Use the official park map to locate Little Falls Trail. Confirm the trail name rather than navigating to another Pennsylvania waterfall with a similar label.

Terrain & what to see

DCNR rates the yellow-marked loop more difficult. The route follows the East Branch of Wallenpaupack Creek and includes a footbridge.

Creek scenery is the focus. A quiet frame of water and woodland can tell the story without trying to make the place look like a larger waterfall.

Before hiking

Check conditions after rain and stay on the marked route. Do not use the short mileage as a reason to rush across wet ground or step into the creek for a photo.

Landscape & trail notes

Little Falls belongs to a larger park and state-forest trail system. Nearby paths on the map should be planned as extensions, not assumed parts of this loop.

After the hike

Note whether the footing matched your expectations when you share. Pair a future visit with Conservation Island or Bruce Lake according to the amount of walking your group wants.
