Cliff Jumping at Adams Falls in Dingmans Ferry, Pennsylvania

About this spot

Located near Dingman's Ferry, this spot is accessed via I-84 exit 53 (the final Pennsylvania exit when coming from New York, or the first exit after entering Pennsylvania). Follow directions toward US 209 South and US 6 West. In Milford, continue on US 209 South as the routes diverge. After traveling through heavily forested terrain, watch for Adams Creek, a modest waterway that crosses under the road. A parking area sits on the right side just before the creek; you can turn around if needed to access it. From the parking spot, walk past the creek where a trail begins on your right. The trail extends 1.5 to 2 miles and leads to a smaller pool featuring a 15-foot platform. Continuing upstream brings you to the main waterfall area with two primary jumps measuring 30 feet and 45 to 50 feet respectively. The location also offers stream hiking opportunities with additional climbing sections and smaller drops ranging from 10 to 15 feet into pools that are 6 to 7 feet deep. Exercise caution and follow safety protocols.

Safety first. Cliff jumping is inherently dangerous and can cause serious injury or death. Conditions — water depth, submerged hazards, and access — change constantly. CliffScout is community-sourced reference information, not a guarantee a spot is safe. Always assess the conditions yourself before jumping, and never jump where you're unsure. You assume all risk.
