DWGNRA Waterfall Hike
2 to 4 out and back hikes to see 6 to 10 waterfalls in the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area
While the hike distance isn't great, this hike requires a few steep climbs requiring grabbing rocks and roots to make it to the top. The reward is some very scenic waterfalls and a couple of very nice pools to swim in, if the water is warm enough. One of the pools has fish that may nibble your toes if you remain still. So wear a bathing suit and bring a towel if you're interested in swimming. How many trails we do will depend on how much time we spend swimming. Wear hiking shoes but bring water shoes if your going to swim. Bring water, snacks and/or lunch. Plan on spending the whole day. Optional dinner at Pub 570. No dogs.
