Whiskey Brook Falls

Whiskey Brook Falls

This very small and easily accessible Adirondack hiking gem sits right along the eastern (right) side of the road if traveling from Speculator. The falls is 5 to 6 feet tall and is surrounded by large boulders.

How to get there

From the intersection of Route 8 and Route 30 in Speculator, drive 2.2 miles north on Route 30 and look off to the right for the stream which flows the road through a large culvert. Pull off to the right, park, and follow the southern bank of the creek upstream for 50 feet where you will see the falls.

Hiking

This is a very short hike of 0.1 miles, losing only about 6 feet in elevation from the parking. You'll have to hop across boulders so be sure to have careful footing.
