A small, easy walk to a quiet waterfall.
Buttermilk Falls County Park is a 73-acre park in Upper Nyack, New York, featuring a short trail that leads down to Buttermilk Falls, a multi-tiered cascade that drops toward the Hudson River. The falls are most dramatic after spring rain or snowmelt, making it a rewarding visit in the right season. The park is free, open year-round, and welcoming to dogs.
