Robert H. Treman State Park

Robert H. Treman State Park is located in the Finger Lakes region of New York state near the city of Ithaca, NY.


My favorite diving board...in the world.

The above photos of the majestic “Lower Falls” portion of the park were taken on a weekday morning in late September 2009. School was in session at the time, which is probably why there were no swimmers wading in the cold waters of the natural swimming pool.

Taking a break in Enfield Creek. The "Gorge Trail" is off frame to the right.

The spine of the park is the 11,000 year old
Enfield Glen, through which rushes Enfield Creek. There is a hiking trail that runs parallel to the creek flanked by the sheer rocky walls of the gorge.

Lucifer Falls, as seen from the eastern approach.

The 115-foot multi-tiered "Lucifer Falls" are a short distance from the Upper Park Entrance. They are the tallest of the 12 waterfalls in the park.
