Buttermilk Falls State Park

A Cascade With a Woodland Beyond

Discover

Buttermilk Falls State Park takes its name from the foaming descent of Buttermilk Creek toward Cayuga Lake. The park extends beyond its signature cascade into woodland, gorge and rim trails, and the wetland setting of Larch Meadows. Let the waterfall begin the visit, then choose another part of the landscape to understand more closely.

Before you go

Check current trails and use the official map for upper and lower park access.

Social

Buttermilk Falls is the opening scene, not the whole park. Woodland and wetland settings add another layer to this Ithaca landscape shaped by a descending creek.

Would you pair a waterfall visit with woodland or wetland scenery?
