Caught between campus and a waterfall daydream☀
You will find the upper entrance in Collegetown by the College Avenue Stone Arch Bridge near the Schwartz Center for the Performing Arts. This historic set of stone trails and staircases was originally constructed in the late 1920’s, and takes visitors through the gorge formed from ancient bedrock and past six waterfalls.
