The Finger Lakes Trail crosses this easily accessible, relatively flat, and calm section of Glen Creek called Ebenezer's Crossing. Although you can reach the crest of the upper cascade of Twin Falls without crossing the creek, we feel that the view only gets better as you proceed. The Finger Lakes Trail bypasses the falls here, and many stop to enjoy the sound of the waterfall before they continue on their journey.

From the top you can barely see the Lower Falls, but can easily spot the varying drops and bounces the water takes as it pours down the larger, Upper Falls. To see the lower falls, you'll have to cross the creek to the northern end and climb down. There you'll see both falls head-on, and the noise from the road above will melt away behind the sound of rushing water and the wind in the trees.

Once across the creek continue on your right back to the falls. You'll be at the crest again. If you want to proceed, you'll have to climb down where a smaller gully meets up with Glen Creek. Be careful: it's often muddy and the rocks and trees could easily dislodge from the cliff edge.

Catharine Valley Trail, when completed, will extend 12 miles from Watkins Glen State Park to Mark Twain State Park in Horseheads, NY, passing through Montour Falls along the way. The trail follows the old Northern Central Railroad and the Chemung Canal towpaths with multiple historic sites along the way.  Friends of the Catherine Valley Trail website.
