As you take a look around New York, you'll find that one thing we surely have an abundance of here in our state are waterfalls. While residents and out-of-town explorers generally have a never-ending list of these natural wonders to choose from, recently here in the Empire State you'll find that some of our favorite go-to spots are currently temporarily closed. Announced by the DEC just days ago, Kaaterskill Falls is currently closed to the public but that doesn't mean there isn't a wonderful alternative at the ready for you! If you're ready to experience your first virtual hike, then see what it's like to explore the tallest waterfall in our state through your screen.
Cascading down more than 230-feet, Kaaterskill Falls is considered to be the tallest waterfall in New York State and there are quite a few ways to explore this epic natural wonder!
A true gem of Greene County and the Northern Catskills, if you head on over to Google, you can select '360 view' to take a virtual tour of Kaaterskill Falls.
Compiled by images captured by New Yorkers and visitors alike, you'll find 360-degree views of all the areas around Kaaterskill Falls that you would get to explore if you were here in person. Just take a look at this shot from the beginning of the trailhead, where you can see Bastion Falls!
Making you feel as though you're there yourself, with all of these different views, you'll be able to virtually explore the trail and see what it's like to hike here.
Before you know it, you'll have virtually reached the base of the falls where you'll find the grand view of Kaaterskill Falls.
That's not all though, you'll also be able to virtually explore the middle area of the falls - a part of Kaaterskill that many aren't willing to actually explore in person.
Who knew you could enjoy such a bucket list-worthy adventure through any one of your screens?
An adventurous way to cure any case of cabin fever, you'll find it nearly impossible to go stir crazy when you're virtually exploring New York's tallest waterfall.
Even featuring aerial views of the falls that show you just how grand this natural wonder really is, it's time you cross Kaaterskill Falls off of your virtual bucket list in New York.
