Robert H. Treman Gorge Trail
Trail distance: 1.5 miles
Difficulty level(s): moderate
A winding trail through Enfield Glen allows visitors to experience 12 waterfalls, including the 115 foot Lucifer Falls, as Enfield Creek cascades toward the Cayuga Inlet. Considered a moderate hike due to several impressive sets of stone staircases and an elevation change of over 500 feet. The Lucifer Falls Overlook features a spectacular view of Enfield Creek cascading 115 feet down the gorge. Other viewpoints allow visitors to look nearly a mile-and-a-half toward the lower gorge. The Gorge Trail can be incorporated into a loop by connecting with the Rim Trail and heading back to the lower/main park trailhead.
