A picturesque 167 foot waterfall is the main attraction of Chittenango Falls State Park! Glacial sculpting over 40 million year-old bedrock is responsible for this scenic feature. An interesting variety of both plants and wildlife may be found along the trails. Visitors can view the falls from the top, walk the winding trail into the gorge view the falls from the footbridge and return to the top along the small trail on the opposite side of the gorge. Activities include camping, fishing, hiking and picnicking.

Visitor Comments, Memories and Reviews

September 18 There is no campground here by ebedgert

The campground no longer exists, have been closed for many years due to budget reasons. This error even still shows up on official New York State maps.

July 3 Trail to waterfall by Marsh

Was concerned by the post saying the trail to the waterfall was closed. Called the park office and was told it is now open again. I hope to get there soon!! Will post with photos when I return.

April 6 Trail to bottom of the falls closed by State and National Park Lover

Looks like this would be a spectacular waterfall except you can only view it from the top. The trail to the bottom and the foot bridge seen in the pictures is closed right now...no posted time to reopen
