Middle Oneonta Falls

Middle Oneonta Falls is actually an informal name since the literature implies that there are actually two other falls that can bear the name Oneonta. I'm not certain how true that is, but I know I've seen the Lower Oneonta Falls and Triple Falls as well as this waterfall which all sit on Oneonta Creek. This waterfall is probably the least impressive of the three.

You can find this waterfall about a mile into the Oneonta Trail where there's a fork descending down to a footbridge over Oneonta Creek allowing you to look right at the short waterfall. It's really an excuse to catch your breath as you continue hiking towards Triple Falls.

Alternatively, if you're starting from Horsetail Falls, that footbridge is actually part of the connecting trail between that and the Oneonta Trail itself.

Directions: The trailheads are either for the Oneonta Trail (see Triple Falls page directions) or for the car park of Horsetail Falls (see its page for directions).
