Robert H. Treman State Park 📍

Robert H. Treman State Park is a state park located in Tompkins County, New York in the United States. The park is located along State Route 327, just west of State Routes 13, 34, and 96, situated in the Towns of Ithaca, Enfield and Newfield.

The park has numerous waterfalls along a rigorous 4.5-mile (7.2 km) round-trip hike. Like many of the state parks in the Finger Lakes region, the hiking trails follow a small creek (Enfield Creek, in this case), giving many views of the rock formations in the deep, narrow gorge (Enfield Glen). A natural swimming pool is located at the easternmost waterfall, “Lower Falls.” A large (over 100 ft (30 m). high), multi-tiered cascading waterfall, “Lucifer Falls,” is a short hike from the top (western) part of the park. The most spectacular view of Lucifer falls can be found along the gorge trail, although there are also overlooks along the rim trail. Finger Lakes Trail skirts the southern edge of the park.

Because of dangerous conditions created by snow and ice, most of the park’s trails are inaccessible in the winter. Visitors can view Lower Falls year-round.

The park offers a pool, picnic tables, playing fields, hiking and camping. The Enfield Falls Mill and Miller’s House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.

Earlier today hiked back to Lucifer Falls at Robert Robert H. Treman State ParkRobert H. Treman State Park Treman State Park. Also hiked the CCC trail. Then drove one of my favorite stretches of highway, NY 13 through the Newfield Valley. I just like the wide valley, nice looking hills. Poked around Montour Falls, hiked up the bridge, then did the north rim trail at Watkins Glen. Many of those photos were shot with my camera so I’ll post them later. Sitting now on the jetty at the Watkins Glen village park out on Seneca Lake, thinking about heading back into town, killing time at the library on the internet then heading back to Montour Falls to see the lights at dusk as it looks really decked out for the holidays. I’ll head back to camp around 5:30, then cook dinner and start a fire, so I can enjoy the final night of the December road trip. Between the sun and driving I should have sufficient power for tonight. Tomorrow morning I’ll take down camp and start head back home, hopefully by dusk.
