Hiking Trail Review
Seneca Mill and Cascade Mill Falls - 5.3 Miles
Trail head was very easy to find with easy access parking. There are several other lots to park at along the trail as well. Several toilets located along the trail as well. Very easy to navigate and super well marked. Trail is snow dusted and icy today. Gorgeous views! Trail is pet friendly. Would recommend if you are in the area.
Nice set of falls. Path was icy and too hazardous to walk to the falls. Google maps doesn't bring you to the parking area, but to a private property. You can back track a few hundred ft to the parking area & pathway.
Feels weird rating nature like this, but this wasn't very impressive. Unfortunately the area isn't well kept and feels a bit run down. Overall worth it for a quick stroll, but i wouldn't consider it a major attraction.
Very well maintained trails! Mostly flat so it's an easy walk but does extend pretty far so it's still good exercise. The falls themselves are smaller but still a beautiful view and a way to enjoy the fall foliage!
Parking is a short walk from the falls. There is a pavilion next to the falls. Heading the opposite way from the falls, there is a grassy path with a beautiful view.
Walked from Falls to Dresden (7 miles round trip )on a perfect day in August. We started early in the morning. By the end of our walk the parking lot was filled so get there early if you can. Very easy trail. For slightly more adventure try the Sugarloaf Side Trails off the main trail. Very scenic. Dog friendly if on leash. Bikes allowed. Highly recommended.
Really nice and well maintained trail. No difficulty and mostly flat. FYI, bugs like to come out in the evenings, so you will be harassed by the flies.
Easy to walk trail connects to two beautiful waterfalls. If you’re visiting the area, I’d highly recommend checking the falls out. Trail is good for kids, adults and pets. Good for walking or biking. Lots of tree cover.
Beautiful day to be on the trail. Early spring and the trail was nice and dry. Awesome, lots of wildlife ???? only disappointment was it was very busy, but everyone was respectful and quiet.
Parking lot was full, but there is also parking across the street. Quick hike on flat terrain to the falls. The falls are beautiful & you can get a great view of them! With is being such an easy hike, it is worth the stop if you’re in the area.
What a beautiful spot, right on Keuka Outlet trail which runs the length of the former canal/ railroad. You can park a short quarter mile away and have a easy walk up to the falls. Next time will walk down stream to check out Cascade!
Cute 3 step falls, a very short quarter mile walk from the parking lot. There is a nice sitting area at a slightly higher level and great opportunities for photos.
Short walk down a fairly easy and flat (except a dip and rise near the waterfall itself) hike from the parking lot. Pretty falls with some cool mill and canal ruins. Fun, free activity if in the area.
Beautiful trail to walk that were very easy to navigate with a few water falls you could get right onto. The water is just beautiful and crystal clear. Was not crowded either
Along the Kueka Lale Outlet Trail are a few sets of waterfalls, Seneca Mills being one. To get to this area, it's a short(0.25mi) flat walk along a shaded trail from the parking area. In the area if the falls are sitting benches, a covered pavilion with picnic tables, and an overlook of the falls. The waterfalls are beautiful and flowing even in times when there has been limited rainfall. An old mill works also part of the falls so you can see the history from days long past.
Free entry. Really easy 1/4 Mike hike on a perfect paved walkway to some beautiful waterfalls that will always be running! Thick, wide waterfalls. There's a nice bench in front of the falls under the shade of a tree for a nice way to relax and view the falls.
The first waterfall next to the mills is Beautiful. The one afterwards is only a rain waterfall.
We seen some crazy things there.
Small parking.
The trail is well kept.
It can be a long walk or a short walk if you want to see the one waterfall.
I went early in the spring. The snow had just finished melting and the river was full and the falls were at their largest. They have some nice rock walls to climb and during the summer there is a nice swimming area. There is a handicap equipt outhouse by the parking area. There is a path from the parking area to the falls.
Beautiful in the winter. Excellent trail leading up to and beyond with multiple access points depending on how far you want to hike. The falls themself are relaxing and beautiful. The fresh snow makes everything bright. Some areas of snow are deep but otherwise easy to get around. May need an AWD or 4 wheel depending where you want to park.
Easy 1/4 mile hike up the overlook. Trail is in great condition. The falls themselves are quite the sight. And the ruins. I wish some trail cleanup could be done. Maybe that would be a good community service opportunity.
