From NYS Route 9N in the village of Lake Luzerne, north of the bridge over the Hudson River, turn onto Bay Road heading west.  You will come to Bridge Street on your left which has another bridge spanning the Hudson River.  Parking is available on the street before you cross the bridge.

Primarily a horseshoe shaped falls, it can be seen from the Hope Bridge, just downstream from it.   This bridge spans the Hudson between the villages of Lake Luzerne and Hadley.  A monument to those who served in the Persian Gulf War is on the Lake Luzerne side of the bridge.

When we were there, a young man was jumping from the rock wall lining the river between the falls and the bridge.  He then rode the current through the rapids that went under the bridge.  Some of these pictures are of him!

The Hudson River flows into the Atlantic Ocean.
