About Bushkill Falls

Bushkill Falls is a privately owned park in the Pocono Mountains with eight waterfalls, the tallest dropping over 100 feet. It opened to visitors in 1904 and bills itself as the Niagara of Pennsylvania. Boardwalks and stairs lead around the main falls, while longer dirt and stone trails with bridges reach the others, including Bridal Veil Falls. The grounds also have gemstone mining, a maze, paddle boats, a playground and picnic areas, and parking is included with admission.
