Trout Brook Falls

Waterfall at Hacklebarney State Park

Trout Brook Falls is the tallest and most well known waterfall at Hacklebarney State Park. The nearly 20 foot waterfall is situated a short walk from the main parking area and features two main view points:

  1. Close: A short unmarked trail off the Purple Trail next to a wooden bridge directly above the falls.
  2. From a distance: A signed unmarked trail down a set of stone steps from the Red Trail

Aside from Trout Brook Falls, Hacklebarney is home to a series of smaller cascades, most of which are in the day-use area. Click the link below to learn how to get to each of the waterfalls in the day-use area on a singular hike.
