Raymondskill Falls

Raymondskill Falls consists of three separate cascades dropping about 150 feet (45 meters) through a forested slope in Pike County. The water pools at each level before flowing onward down the hillside, creating multiple viewing vantage points along the trail.

The site gained protection in the mid-twentieth century when the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area was established to preserve the natural landscape. This conservation effort continues to safeguard the falls and surrounding forest.

The falls draw people seeking natural beauty and a connection to the landscape, serving as a gathering place for those who enjoy outdoor exploration. Visitors often come to experience the power of moving water and the quiet of the surrounding forest.

The falls are reached via hiking trails that begin from nearby parking areas and lead to viewing levels of the cascades. The terrain can be slippery after rain, so sturdy footwear and careful footing are advisable.

The three-tiered formation makes this one of the tallest waterfalls in the state, offering multiple viewing angles along the trail. The varying light between each level creates different moods and photographic opportunities throughout the day.
