Ithaca Falls
 Ithaca Falls is easily the largest of the Finger Lakes waterfalls with 150ft height and a 175ft width and year-round flow (draining into Cayuga Lake). Despite the popularity of this waterfall and ease of access in the college town (Cornell University) of Ithaca, it retains the tranquility and peace often lacking in such waterfalls so close to a developed town or city. A short walking trail alongside the stream leads to the base of the falls from the somewhat obscure car park area. In addition to sun and water bathers, you might also see people try to catch fish (as we have witnessed). [Back to top]  People fishing by the falls in a late summer afternoon
