Vernooy Kill Falls in the Sundown Wild Forest is located in the Town of Rochester, NY 12404 in Ulster County. Distance: 3.6 miles Elevation: 250 feet ascent Vernooy Falls "Vernooy Kill Falls is a series of picturesque little waterfalls with pools, dropping about 30 feet in 4 stages. A foot bridge crosses the base of the falls for a scenic view. Nearby is a tall stonewall, a remnant of the Vernooy Mill which 200 years ago was a major crossroads where farmers near and far brought their grain for milling. A major road ran through this area which now looks so wild. In the ten years since 2000, over 1000 acres have burned on nearby Cherrytown Mountain."
"Take State Route 209 to Cherrytown Road to Upper Cherrytown Road. The parking lot is on the right on Upper Cherrytown Road. Park and cross the road to the trail, which at first climbs up a steep hill on the old woods road, now a snowmobile trail."
