Taughannock Falls State Park - Finger Lakes

Taughannock Falls State Park is home to one of the most dramatic and accessible waterfalls in the Finger Lakes. The park and falls are just a short 15 minute drive north of Ithaca, NY along Cayuga Lake. In this video, we take you to the falls overlook, along the family-friendly gorge trail to the base of the falls, and across the street to the Cayuga Lake waterfront.

I visited family every summer in Geneva while growing up, and have been to a lot of the towns and cities you highlight. Your videos are very comforting and nostalgic to me. Thank you so much.

You didn't mention the harder-to-find Upper Falls, where the water seems to fall down a chimney. It's not as impressively in your face as the Middle Falls, but it's worth seeing. About 25 years ago, before the Lookout Center was built, and when the falls was not so heavily patrolled, my wife and I went swimming in the pool beneath the Middle Falls. It was SO COLD, but after you went numb, it was great! Water falling over 200 feet can hit you pretty hard on your back and shoulders, too, but strangely, it was warmer than the water already in the pool. I doubt you could get away with swimming there now, not without getting a ticket, anyway. However you go, this is a MUST-SEE!

Ha! Swimming under the middle falls must have been amazing, even with the cold! And thanks for mentioning the upper falls. Definitely worth a visit!
