Start here

Use the designated Raymondskill Road lots and official trail access. Check seasonal parking and any shuttle arrangements before arrival.

Terrain & what to see

NPS describes short but steep, uneven walking between viewpoints. The main route is distinct from the seasonal creek spur.

The three-tiered falls offer different views from the official upper and lower viewing areas. Stay within those established places.

Before hiking

Pets, food, picnics and alcohol are prohibited at the site. Swimming and wading restrictions apply. Check the current NPS rules and avoid unofficial paths toward the base.

Landscape & trail notes

NPS identifies Raymondskill as Pennsylvania’s tallest waterfall. You do not need a risky photo position to appreciate how the separate drops fit into the ravine.

After the hike

Head toward Milford for your next planned stop rather than picnicking at the falls. Keep Cliff Trail or Hackers Falls as separate saved ideas if the group wants another outing.
