LeTort Falls at LeTort Falls Park in Carlisle, Pennsylvania is an easy 0.1-mile out-and-back walk that leads to a viewpoint of the 7-foot tall waterfall, LeTort Falls.
This is not a hike but rather a very short walk through LeTort Falls Park to reach the edge of Conodoguinet Creek. From the edge of the creek, visitors will get a view of the 7-foot tall LeTort Falls across the creek located due-South. The waterfall sits several-hundred feet away; however, this is the closest public viewing area of the waterfall, as viewed from downstream.

MyHikes is an indie web platform aimed to make exploring public trails easier for everyone. The site has no investors and is owned and operated by one person, Dave Miller (Founder & Admin). As the Founder, main contributor, and doer-of-all-things for MyHikes, I share my trips with over-detailed write-ups for fun on a volunteer basis and I believe that public trail information should be available to everyone.
It takes a lot of time 🕦, money 💰, and effort (including espresso shots ☕) to run MyHikes, including hiking , mapping , writing , and publishing new trails with high-quality content... along with building new features, moderating, site maintainance, and app development for iOS and Android . I simply ask that if you find MyHikes' trail guides helpful to please consider becoming a Supporter to help keep the site, iOS, and Android apps available to everyone.
Supporters unlock website and in-app perks with a one-time payment of $25 (you renew) 😎👍. Or you can simply make a Donation of your choice without a MyHikes user account. Otherwise, telling your friends about MyHikes is the next-best thing - both quick and free 🎉
Thanks for visiting MyHikes and have a great hike!️
