Hannacroix Ravine Preserve

Hannacroix Ravine Preserve spans 415 acres and is managed by The Nature Conservancy, welcoming visitors to explore its natural beauty. Situated on the western outskirts of New Scotland, it serves as the origin of Hannacrois Creek. The highlight of the preserve is Sliding Rock Falls, a 30-foot waterfall visible from the main trail that loops around the area, totaling about 3 miles. While the hike is moderate and generally uneventful, hikers may catch a glimpse of the falls from certain vantage points along the trail.
