2025 is the 100th anniversary of the establishment of Taughannock Falls State Park near Trumansburg, NY and north of Ithaca along the west shore of Cayuga Lake in the Finger Lakes region. The 215-feet-high waterfall has long been boasted to be the tallest falls east of the Rockies. Or the tallest in the eastern US. Or the tallest straight-drop waterfall in the east. Or even the tallest waterfall in New York State. Yet it may be none of these.
In this encore episode of Walk in the Park, let’s take a look at Taughannock Falls, its geology, and its place among the great waterfalls.
Walk in the Park is a non-commercial, public access TV series cablecast on channel 13 in Ithaca, NY. Walk in the Park is produced by Owl Gorge Productions, a Finger Lakes Tourism Alliance partner.
