LeTort Falls

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.
