This stunning waterfall is the best of the Poconos waterfalls in my opinion. This short hike (0.5mile loop) along a wooden path is a must do in the area. We visited after a short storm and was well worth it. Stunning greenery and forests greet you almost like a rain forest as you walk the path to the falls. You will also pass the small (thin but tall) silver thread falls as you walk to Dingmans Falls. Absolutely beautiful natural environment. No dogs are allowed unfortunately. There is a somewhat steep hike up some stairs to get to the TOP of the falls which does disappoint as the view isn't perhaps as you hope from above the falls (unless you step on the fence to elevate yourself a little higher).

Read moreGorgeous and easy. Myself, two kids (4 and 7), husband, sister and brother in law all went on this hike today and it was so fun.

(They walked the entire way) I saw kids with their bikes, parents with strollers, it’s very family friendly. Parking was easy peasy. $2 to cross the bridge. Plenty of spots on the trail to explore and let the kids touch the water. It took a good two hours out of our day too. We’ll be going back and can’t wait to find more amazing trails...
