This Buffalo Waterfall Is The Coolest Thing You’ll Ever See For Free
Even though we live in one of the largest cities in all of New York State, Buffalo isn’t exactly the concrete jungle that many outsiders would assume it to be. Not only is the Queen City situated along one of the country’s Great Lakes, but we’re also surrounded by all sorts of exciting natural wonders that are within our reach. While some attractions may require you to pull out your wallet, one of the most fascinating natural wonders that you’ll ever see only requires that you’re willing to go on a true outdoor adventure. Ready to bring out your inner Indiana Jones? It’s time to go chasing waterfalls.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life.

Barely 20-miles outside of Downtown Buffalo, Chestnut Ridge Park covers more than 1,200-acres of land inside Erie County.
Out of all the areas that you can explore within Chestnut Ridge Park, you'll find a good majority of visitors making their way along the Eternal Flame Falls Trail.
The short but sweet hike is less than a mile long, but does require a good pair of sturdy shoes due to the fact that you'll be traveling over rocky areas and exposed tree roots.
If you're unfamiliar with this waterfall, the reason why it's so unique is because all year round you can find a natural flame burning inside of the waterfall.
If you've yet to cross this epic natural wonder off of your bucket list, explore Buffalo's backyard by taking a trip to Chestnut Ridge Park in Erie County.
