Chittenango Falls State Park

A 167-foot waterfall that is one of the tallest in New York State, visible from multiple overlook platforms connected by stone stairways. The falls drop in a single dramatic plunge over a ledge of resistant limestone. The main viewing platform is just a short walk from the parking lot making it accessible for all ages. A trail descends to the base of the falls through a gorge. The park is home to the endangered Chittenango ovate amber snail found nowhere else on Earth. A picnic area and playground round out the visit.

Walkway Over the Hudson

The longest elevated pedestrian bridge in the world, a converted railroad bridge 212 feet above the Hudson River. The 1.28-mile walk across offers incredible views up and down the river and of the surrounding mountains. Kids love the experience of being that high above the water and the bridge is wide, flat, and fenced, making it safe for all ages. An elevator on the Poughkeepsie side makes it accessible. On the Highland side, the Walkway connects to a rail trail for extended biking and walking.
