One of several sections of waterfalls or rapids on the lower part
of the Moose River, this site is directly under the bridge on the
Lowdale Road at Lyonsdale, in the left channel of the river.
This stretch of the river is very popular with the kayak
community.
To get here, travel NYSR 12 to Lyons Falls. Find
the bridge crossing the Black River and continue. Lowdale
Road is just after the paper mill on your left.
There is a hydro facility at this point and these falls are
often not flowing unless there is high water.
The Moose River flows into the Black River just a few miles
downstream from this location in Lyons Falls. The Black
empties into Lake Ontario in the Jefferson County community of
Dexter.
