First time at Bushkill Falls for the family and definitely not the last. We're already thinkin about goin back with a big group. Gorgeous natural place- reminds you of a Disney World adventure set but this is the real deal! Kids of all ages will love it as will couples. Very friendly staff as well.
Spent the day hiking with my son and family. My grandsons were 9 and 6; they loved every minute! It was a beautiful day; and I was amazed at how easy the hike was, and how well kept the grounds were. The walkways and stairways are very accessible, and very well built and maintained. The different level hiking trails were very well marked. The falls were beautiful, and we spend hours playing along the rocks and water.
was a wonderful day trip, we walked with all the kids, they all loved it, some parts were boring but all around was nice. It is a lot of walking only do it if all are able to walk. May be easier to do it backwards.I do recommend it
Age sixty and slight asthma but I did it. It is so beautifulthere are picnic areas and a small food establishment.there were places to rest as you were climbing stairs.Not for people in wheelchairs.
Seeing Bushkill Falls for the first time is amazing. This is one of the places I bring visitors to the Poconos area.
There were clearly constructed steps and bridges giving you the best views of the waterfall with easy access. We went right after a huge rain-storm so the steps were a little wet but it was still so beautiful!
Being born and raised, back in the day, about 3 miles from Bushkill Falls, it was my first job and spent many weekends riding my bike to and from this beauty.
Magnificent falls..high and sparkling in the autumn sun. This can be a physical experience, but it also has a less strenuous possibility. The area is large enough that you can feel alone and away-from-it-all even on a busy day.Surprisingly uncommercial for a commercial enterprise.
Very underwhelming experience especially for the price.$25 for two people to gain entrance.We finished the red trail, the longest excursion in under 45 minutes.It's not that this isn't a cool outdoor place, but the trails are kind of boring and generic and the falls aren't really anything special. not much in the way of views either.I'm still trying to figure out if this is a privately run property or state run, because it certainly isn't worth the $12.50 per person admission fee.After we finished the trails, I just thought to myself how much of a rip off it was. I'm not really sure what we even paid for.Compared to say Alishan Mountain in Taiwan, which is $5 USD entrance fee, well there really isn't any comparison.And we came a day after heavy rainfall and we had to wait in line for 45 minutes just to buy a ticket.
Take water, a camera, comfortable shoes and take it all in. A great hike through some very picturesque sites. Be sure to take your time and try all the trails if you have time. The trails are well marked but be sure to get there early as crowds pick up in the afternoon.
