 As
indicated in the directions side-bar, you should reference our
Tenant Creek Falls/Hope Falls page
for directions to the parking area and trailhead.
The
first waterfall is about 0.9 mile up the trail using the easy to
follow yellow DEC trail markers attached to trees periodically
on the trail.
After you reach the first falls, climb the
hill to the right of the falls (river left). You will
again find yellow DEC disks marking your way upstream. You
will find
2nd Falls in another 1.1 mile and 3rd Falls is another 0.1
beyond that.
Tenant Creek flows into the East Stony Creek. This flows
south into the Great Sacandaga Lake, which feeds the Sacandaga River.
The Sacandaga merges with the Hudson River in Lake Luzerne.
The Hudson empties into the Atlantic Ocean in New York City.
