About an hour round trip from lower entrance if you take the gorge trail up and rim trail back, lots of gorgeous views from gorge trail run trail is less scenic .

Known for it's Gorge Trail , Buttermilk State Park has beautiful falling waters and lifeguard attended swimming areas.

Alex Robertson

Beautiful. Pictured is right there visible from the parking lot , though you can walk up its right side

Once you pay the fee to enter a NY state park for the day you can visit other parks using your receipt for the rest of the day. Makes up for not having any garbage cans in the parks

For an easier climb, take the rim trail up and the gorges trail down. The gorges trail has loads of stairs

Beautiful park, with a nice set of waterfalls you can walk up next to. Walking goes up into the gorge/glen adjacent to the river running down these sets of falls. Excellent. Swimming at bottom. - George Walters
