About this location

KENT FALLS STATE PARK HOSTS ONE OF CONNECTICUT'S MOST DRAMATIC NATURAL CASCADES — A 70-FOOT SERIES OF TUMBLING WATERFALLS THAT WIND THROUGH ANCIENT MARBLE AND SCHIST GEOLOGY IN THE HOUSATONIC VALLEY. THE FALLS ARE EASILY ACCESSIBLE FROM A MAINTAINED TRAIL THAT ALLOWS CAMERA POSITIONING AT MULTIPLE HEIGHTS AND ANGLES. THE SURROUNDING FOREST CREATES NATURAL FRAMING IN EVERY SEASON; FALL FOLIAGE DRAMATICALLY AMPLIFIES THE VISUAL IMPACT. A RUSTIC COVERED BRIDGE AND STONE WALLS NEAR THE PARK ENTRANCE
