Kent Falls State Park, State park in Kent, Connecticut, US
Kent Falls features a sequence of waterfalls dropping 250 feet along steep rocks through a northeast-facing valley in the Berkshire Mountains.
The Connecticut State Park and Forest Commission established Kent Falls as a public recreation area in 1919 to preserve its natural resources.
The park serves as an educational center with programs focusing on local geology, wildlife conservation, and environmental protection throughout the year.
Visitors can access multiple observation points along a steep quarter-mile trail with steps and railings leading to the upper falls.
The falls maintain consistent water flow across multiple tiers, creating a natural staircase effect visible from different angles through the surrounding forest.
