Why we recommend it

This is such a fun experience of hiking, swimming and adventure. Pack a swim suit, lunch and plenty of water!

About this place

This is one of the amazing spots to visit in the Ithaca Gorges area. This was a regular hike growing up, and a must visit whenever we get back up north. The hike takes you through the gorge, with plenty of opportunity to swim and enjoy the water. This hike will wear you out. Definitely recommend having two cars, so you can put one up top in the lot and pick everyone back up.
