Mother Nature at her finest. I've done the overlook, hiked up from the bottom, walked down from the top. love the view & seeing what the Falls are doing! more »

Not a bad hike. Going to the bottom is a bit trying, depending on your experience. Great views in a nice area. Can be a quick hike if you want. more »

Kaaterskill Falls has been a family favorite for many years. You can view it form the bottom - parking is located passed the falls across the road at an overlook point or you can view it from the top.... more »

This place is so amazing during the winter. I highly recommend this location. Dress warm, and be ready to walk a long distance, because there is a lot to see! You definitely want to go see the waterfall, there’s an amazing view overlooking the top. The pictures that I took don’t compare to the beautiful scenery that’s in store for you and your family. On a side note there’s plenty of trails to go through. Major tip...If your going in the winter time bring snow boots, the snow gets very deep

We went here in the winter/early spring when the trail was snowy but it was no problem. Super easy to get to the view point from the parking lot, just a quarter mile walk with no hard parts. The view is great and the falls are cool, especially frozen. Great for groups who want great views and nature without too much effort. I highly recommend if you’re in the area.

Love this hike. Very beautiful place. The stair steps are a nice addition to keep people safe. Make sure to go in the rainy season to see the real beauty of these falls.

Went mid-Jan and it was stunning, the falls where frozen and the paths where covered in snow. Still open and used a lot, just bring your snow shoes. There was some people ice climbing there as well but that's not my cup of tea.
