Bushkill Falls

Bushkill Falls is a series of eight privately owned waterfalls, the tallest of which cascades over 100 feet, located in Lehman Township, Pennsylvania in the Pocono Mountains. This place is one of the best day trips from Delaware. The water of the Little Bush Kill and Pond Run Creek descends the mountain, toward the Delaware River, forming Bushkill Falls, Bridal Veil Falls, Bridesmaid Falls, Laurel Glen Falls, Pennell Falls, and three additional, unnamed falls.

Back in 1904, Charles E. Peters first opened Bushkills Falls to the public and today it is recognized as the “Niagara of Pennsylvania.” These eight unique waterfalls are among some of the Keystone State’s most famous scenic attractions. Providing easy navigation are the many trails and bridges laced throughout the woods, taking you over waterfalls, along the streams, and over rocks, mosses, and fields of wildflowers. There are plenty of activities and family fun on hand at Bushkill Falls, including paddle boats, fishing, miniature golf, educational exhibits, a children’s playground, maze feature, “gold mining” adventure, and gift shops. Bring a picnic to enjoy at the pavilion or grab something from the snack bar and fudge kitchen.
