Nearest Intersection:
Buckley Hollow Rd and Williams Rd
Directions:
From Hwy 12 and Hwy 206, in Greene, Get on Hwy 12 and drive northeast for 6.9 miles. Turn left onto Williams Rd and drive 1.8 miles.Turn left onto Buckley Hollow Rd, and park off to the side of the road.
Comments/Notes:
There is no technical real parking area for this location. Parking is anywhere safe at this “Y” intersection. Almost directly at the corner of Buckley Hollow Rd and Williams road is the Finger lakes trailhead. This trail goes thru private property, please stay on the trail. From the trail start, you will see a notice stating the trail is closed off in ¼ of a mile. As you leave the roadside you will come to a fence and a little ladder type thing in which you will use to climb over the wired fencing. Once over the fence the trail continues to the left along the edges of an open field. In about 400 ft you will entered the woods line again and will be following a well maintained trail. There is fence up all along the edge of the stream to your left. You cannot cross over this fence to get a closer view of the small falls along here. You have more of a birdseye view of this whole section. (To be honest this section is actually best viewed from walking along the roadside on Buckley Hollow road.) Continue along the trail and you will come to a section much similar to a bend in the road, here you have a good view of the bridge on Buckley hollow road. Continue along for about another 400 ft and you will come to the Second Main waterfall. Again these views are all birdseye to falls below. Here is where the trail is closed and you turn around and head back out the same way. If the trail was open there is the third waterfall. The trail continues all the way to Highway 12 entrance/exit of this section of the finger lakes trail.

OXBOW FALLS MADISON NY 4-12-2015_00003.JPG

The photo above can be seen from the roadside. You can either park at the pull off for the overlook just before reaching the park. Other option is to park in the parking area for the park and walk back down the road to where the guardrails start.

Helderburg Escarpment

Clockville Creek 100 ft Ribbon

Short to the top of falls

There are 3 waterfalls in the park. From the parking area follow the trail to top of falls. There is a trail on both sides of the falls. I like taking the trail on the right side of the falls, all the way down. There are smaller falls along that section. As well as it takes you around to the bottom of the Main falls, and bottom of the second falls. If you take the trail on the left side from the top, it takes you around the other side for a long distant view of the two falls.

I spoke with a landowner, and the property is owned by a relative. When I stopped to get permission, after being directed to do so, no one was home….My luck…Plans to return in the future.



Clockville Creek Falls-Crandall Road falls on (prior named)

Unnamed Stream Cascade Roadside Private

The owner was working in his yard and granted us permission to take photos of the falls. I have been to this location many times over looking for Clockville Creek Falls. A friend of mine took me to the location you see here in the photos. The location is on private property. We obtained permission to photograph the falls.

The resource I had had for years showed there was the Clockville Creek Falls, in this same location. I was not looking for the falls right in someones side yard. I was looking on Clockville Road at the intersection of Clockville Road and Crandall Road. The falls are actually located on Crandall Road just about two houses up from the intersection on Crandall Road.

I am like 99 percent sure I have the correct location of Clockville Creek Falls.

Canastota Creek Dam and Falls

From nelson road to Canastota Falls is .6 mile round trip. The total approximate distance from the parking on Oxbow Road and following the trail to Nelson Road it is 1.7 miles one way.

This was very easy to find. The trail looks well maintained. I have included a picture of the area where you would have to turn off main trail (see page). Just listen for the falls. This section of the trail has the two seasonal waterfalls. More looks like run offs from somewhere further up.
