Clarendon Falls in Holley, New York is a 25-foot waterfall that can be visited in a short 0.2-mile loop or out-and-back walk.
This is not a hike but rather a quick walk out to the 25-foot tall Clarendon Falls, which has two main tiers that cascade down the bedrock. Visitors can choose to simply walk to the waterfall and back to parking or walk the entire park in a short 0.2-mile loop. There's a bench that sits just below the waterfall so you can relax and enjoy the cascading water.
Private Property
Note that surrounding the park are private homes and lots. Please be respectful of the locals and stay on public land.
