You never know where the tallest waterfall in New Jersey is hiding... 🌊🌲
Located in the heart of the Delaware Water Gap, Buttermilk Falls is a total hidden gem that feels like it belongs in the Pacific Northwest rather than a road trip away from Philly. The best part? You can see the main falls right from the parking area, or take the steep climb up the wooden stairs for a view from the top.
You should know: first part of the Buttermilk Falls Trail is pretty difficult. I wouldn’t recommend it for children and very beginners - it’s a challenge for your lungs, your knees, your glutes. But if you can make it to the top - you’ll be rewarded with amazing views and adventures on the trail.
If you’re looking for a weekend escape that trades city sounds for rushing water, this is your spot.

I’m testing my NOSINCAKES Peanut Bars as an energy snack all the time: before gym, while hiking, as a between meals snack. Works perfect all the time! And my clients with diabetes keep telling me that these sweets are great for them.
