Although this is a very short hike, the falls, when flowing, are truly spectacular and worth the time to visit as this is reported to be the tallest waterfall in Pennsylvania at 178 feet.
We really enjoyed this hike. The steps have been installed along several parts of the trail making for less trip hazards. Our visit was during fall, so we didn't have to contend with any ice or snow. We enjoyed the views and even found the old abandoned outhouse!
The Francestown Conservation Commission in the July 2021 edition of the Francestown News announced that the trail has now been officially named the "PUTNAM LOOP TRAIL". There is now an updated trail map link in the Length and Trail Information section of the original report.
