See The Tallest Waterfall In Pennsylvania At Delaware Gap National Recreation Area

How lucky are we to live in a state with so much pure natural beauty that it would probably take a lifetime to see it all? Because we have so many places to explore, many of us have a bucket list, so we don’t miss our favorites. Pull out that bucket list now, and add the tallest waterfall in Pennsylvania, perhaps one of the state’s most spectacular natural wonders.

We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing. While we’re continuing to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, we don’t expect or encourage you to go check them out immediately. We believe that supporting local attractions is important now more than ever and we hope our articles inspire your future adventures! And on that note, please nominate your favorite local business that could use some love right now: https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/nominate/
Tucked in Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area in Milford, Raymondskill Falls holds the title of the tallest waterfall in Pennsylvania.

Before you can see the 150-foot natural wonder, however, you have to embark on a short but scenic hike along the Raymondskill Creek Trail.

The .6-mile loop hike is rated between easy and moderate. You will have to deal with some steep climbs, however.

Wear sturdy shoes as some parts of the trail can be uneven.
You'll likely hear the gushing of the waterfall before you first see it. If you're hiking along the Raysmondskill Creek Trail, you can view the waterfall from a lower viewing area and a higher viewing area.

The waterfall, which is slightly shorter than Niagara Falls when each tier is added together, provides the picture-perfect backdrop for photographs and selfies.

From May through October, the waterfall can get really busy with Pennsylvanians and out of state visitors.

If you visit during the sweltering days of summer, do not attempt to swim in or near the falls. Swimming is prohibited in Pennsylvania's waterfalls and within 50 feet of waterfalls.

The area around Raymondskill Falls features two parking lots and bathrooms at the beginning of the trail.
