Exploring Pixley Falls State Park

After exploring the park area, we made our way down the steep slope to see the majestic Pixley Falls. The area is a terrific place to explore– we could walk right up to the falls– I even walked to the top and looked down! Because the water is eroding the limestone, there are amazing concentric circles at the top of the falls. It was like a little fairy land.

Pixley Falls State Park is on Route 46, south of Boonville. It lies at the southern foothills of the glorious Adirondack Mountain Range. Like so many New York State geography wonders, this is a watercourse over ancient stratfied limestone. We were given complete freedom to explore!

In 1778, a tortuous massacre at Cherry Valley put the tiny settlement on the map. Slain at the hands of Tories, British, and Mohawk Indian allies, the American vowed revenge. Visiting Cherry Valley today, you’d never know the place was the hotbed of patriotic passions. We strolled the town and visited the lovely Judds Falls. What a gorge!
