About this spot
Located near Dingman's Ferry, Adam's Falls is accessed from I-84 exit 53 (the final Pennsylvania exit when traveling east, or the first exit after entering Pennsylvania from New York). Follow directional markers for US 209 South and US 6 West. In Milford, US 209 South branches left from US 6. Continue on this road through forested terrain until you spot Adams Creek, a modest waterway that the road crosses. A pull-off area sits on the right side before the creek crossing; turn around if necessary to reach this lot. From the parking area, walk down the road past Adams Creek, then turn right onto a marked trail. Travel along this path for approximately 1.5 to 2 miles to reach a compact pool with a 15-foot platform. Continuing upstream leads to the main waterfall formation, offering a 30-foot jump and a 45-50 foot drop. The creek above the falls provides excellent scrambling opportunities with numerous smaller jumps ranging from 10-15 feet dropping into pools 6-7 feet deep. Stream hiking and exploring the area are rewarding activities when proper safety precautions are observed.
