Stony Brook State Park is located off of NY 36, just off I-390 by Dansville.
It is not far from Letchworth State Park, and is a nice stop between Letchworth
and Watkins Glen and other Falls in the Finger Lakes area.
The Park has all sorts of activities and is quite popular and well visited. The gorge trail follows the creek from the lower park to the upper park. There are numerous small falls and areas to play in the water. There are three main falls. The lower falls is the most impressive of the three, followed by the upper falls. The gorge trail does not actually go all the way to the upper falls, and you will probably have to get your feet wet if you want to see the upper falls. |
