The Lower Falls Trail at Robert H. Treman State Park in Ithaca, New York is an easy 0.3-mile out-and-back trail that leads to a large 40-foot tall waterfall.
This short paved trail is open year-round, giving hikers access to the beautiful Lower Falls cascade. The trail itself is very flat and very short. As it approaches the waterfall and public swimming area, the trail loops (not shown in the GPS data), as it runs both alongside the gorge canyon walls and alongside Enfield Creek.
At the waterfall, take in the views and/or take a swim in Enfield Creek during warmer months.

Before you leave...
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!️
