Pluto Falls is a waterfall on Glen Creek in Schuyler County, New York, with a total height of about 15 feet, though other measurements run lower.
The falls
A 2018 survey found two leaps, 6 and 7 feet, below a logjam, and a separate estimate for the falls runs 9 to 10 feet — both well under the 15-foot total now listed. Glen Creek descends 400 feet within two miles here, forming 19 waterfalls.
Getting there
The falls sit about 0.8 mile along the Gorge Trail. Construction routing should be checked before travel.
When to go
The Gorge Trail normally operates mid-May to mid-October; rim trails are open year-round. Summer and early-autumn flow can be small.
On site
A seasonal vehicle entrance fee of $10 is collected mid-May to mid-October. Pets, swimming, and entering the gorge are prohibited on the Gorge Trail. Kid-specific guidance and any record of deaths or rescues here are not documented.
