Pat after a failed trip to Ver Nooy Kill Falls, decided to meet me for a Hudson Valley extravaganza of waterfalls. First up, Nevele Falls in Ellenville.
Located just off Route 52 about a mile east from 209, Nevele Falls was a pleasant surprise. Eleven school teachers named Nevele Falls (eleven spelt backwards) in the 1800s. The Nevele Resort took its name from these rather unassuming falls. Remains of an old dam were visible. We climbed to the top of one of the walls to try to get a better view. This would not be the case as there was too much plant growth. The best views were for those willing to get their feet wet. And we were.
An extravaganza it was! Never expected to get so much hiking done today. Wanted to just do my thing and go home. So glad we met up.
ReplyDeleteNever knew that nevele came from eleven. Nice bit of trivia.
