Lower Falls (Enfield Falls) There was an option (which we didn't do) to hike the longer 5.3-mile loop hike which goes all the way to the other car park going past Lucifer Falls as well as other gorge scenery in the Enfield Glen. Lower Falls has an unusual convex shape though apparently this is more common in this area due to the weak nature of the underlying rock that makes up the glens and gorges of the Finger Lakes geology. I've seen it said that this waterfall is 70ft tall, but after seeing it in person, that seemed like a pretty generous estimate.
