Bridal Veil Falls is a 25-foot waterfall on Kiskatom Brook in Greene County, New York, a narrow drop next to the much wider Glen Falls.
The falls
The fall is a slim horsetail on a stream that can run quite dry by late summer. Visitors sometimes confuse it with neighboring Glen Falls, the larger falls it sits beside.
Getting there
The falls are on the grounds of a private resort, Glen Falls House on Winter Clove Road, with parking across the road and a shared observation platform. Visitors are advised to check with the owner before leaving the trail or entering the gorge. Current fee, hours and public-access terms are not documented.
When to go
The falls can be seen year-round, though the stream can run quite dry by late summer.
On site
The observation platform gives a view of both Bridal Veil and Glen Falls, though foliage can block it. Off-trail access into the gorge itself may be limited to resort guests. Swimming, dogs and any injury or rescue history are not documented.
