Every Pennsylvanian arguably knows that if you want to see waterfalls – and a lot of them – we just need to journey to Ricketts Glen State Park, which boasts 21 waterfalls. If you love waterfalls, you’ll also want to add Bushkill Falls in Pennsylvania to your bucket list. Like Ricketts Glen State Park, it promises an abundance of natural beauty.
Bushkill Falls beckons countless visitors from Pennsylvania and beyond with its eight cascading waterfalls and its reputation as "The Niagara Falls of Pennsylvania."
Unlike Pennsylvania's state parks, however, you have to pay admission to enter the park. (Admission helps provide for the continued care of the park.) Find current ticket prices.
Keep an eye out for local wildlife as you're hiking, too. You may spot fawns, rabbits, squirrels, and even black bears. Bird watchers will also be able to spot a collection of birds, from ducks to owls.
Bushkill Falls also features a full menu of fun activities, including miniature golf, paddleboats, and mining for gemstones. You can even grab a bite to eat or bring a picnic.
Explore the eight beautiful waterfalls of Bushkill Falls daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Due to the ongoing pandemic, guests will have to follow some COVID guidelines to ensure their and others' safety.
