Triple Falls is the jewel of Oneonta Gorge. It is an incredibly beautiful segmented waterfall, as three falls plunge over a cliff on Oneonta Creek. The Oneonta Trail takes you to a scenic overlook above the waterfall in about 1.4 miles. The trail then continues a short distance to a bridge at the top of the waterfall, but the best view is from the overlook.
