Can be wet after a rain shower going down the stairs

Nestled within the forests of Glastonbury, not far from the Hebron line, Blackledge Falls is formed as the Blackledge River careens over an abrupt cliff and plunges into a shallow pool below. The Blackedge River spans more than 16 miles, rising in Bolton and meandering through Connecticut’s eastern uplands before reaching its confluence with the Salmon River in Colchester. When it courses through Glastonbury’s Blackledge Falls Park, however, it is still a modest woodland brook in its fledgling state. But despite limited water volume, the 25-foot freefall plunge of Blackledge Falls produces a striking aesthetic that is actually somewhat rare amongst the waterfalls of Connecticut. https://connecticutwaterfalls.com/blackledge-falls/

Very beautiful, peaceful waterfall, unfortunately very little water.

This is the entrance to the path that has multiple waterfalls on it. The path that leads to the falls is not suitable for a bike, but it is worth taking a break, finding a spot to leave the bike, and walking to visit the falls.

There are a number of waterfalls to explore along the trail here. The fast flowing water over smooth rock makes for an impressive site. A good spot for some long exposure photography of the water features.
