Lower Falls of the Genesee River (Letchworth)

The Lower Falls of the Genesee River in Letchworth State Park


The Lower Falls of the Genesee River is the last of the three major waterfalls on the Genesee River in Letchworth State Park in Western New York. Although it lacks the height of the other falls in the park, it has the width and character. I've seen photos of this waterfall coupled with beautiful fall colors on neighboring maple leaves. There's also an interesting gorge nearby to add to the drama of the scenery. The walk to view this waterfall is short, but it's probably the most strenuous of the three Genesee River waterfalls. Still with that said, a half-mile one-way with stairs and a well-established trail hardly qualifies as anything difficult.
