About This Trail

Imported description

The end of the trail where the waterfalls are has been sold by the town. There is a fence and markers near the waterfall. A nice hike for dogs and children. It's easy to get around without trail markers. The waterfall has a foot bridge. The Indian Kill has a path known as the red trail. The yellow trail has a higher elevation route. It is not possible to cross the second waterfall with high water on the Red trail. I enjoyed a relatively short hike. It's not recommended to go on trails that are not marked.
