The Stevenson Forest Preserve Waterfalls at Stevenson Forest Preserve near Enfield, New York is an easy 0.2-mile roadside walk that features small waterfalls within the preserve.
This short walk begins along the side of Trumbulls Corners Road located near the parking coordinates provided and heads downhill along Trumbulls Corners Road. Hikers will find small waterfalls and cascades within the creek in the boundary of the preserve. On this hike I documented small cascades at mile 0.01, 0.04, 0.05, and a private cascade on the east side of the road located near mile 0.1. All of the waterfalls are very short, approximately 2 to 3-feet tall, but are scenic nonetheless. The most-scenic of the cascades sits around mile 0.05 and is located off of the road -- a small amount of bushwhacking is required to reach it, but it's not far or difficult. The last waterfall is about 5-feet tall (or more) with several tiers of bedrock cascades that flow down the hillside -- however, this waterfall sits on private land so please only view it from the road.
Parking
Hikers will find two parking lots for this hike -- one at the main parking coordinates provided, which is an off-road turnout. Or you can park just down the road along Trumbulls Corners Road at the main parking lot for Stevenson Forest Preserve and simply hike this in the opposite direction out-and-back.
Pets
Dog are allowed only if leashed and must be cleaned up after.
