Frequently referred to as the Pocono
highlands, this area of spring-fed swamps, ponds and lakes feeds many brooks
which tumble down the ridge along the Delaware River.
Raymondskill Creek
tumbles down a small, rocky ravine creating a set of three cataracts varying in drop from three to
sixty feet. Raymondskill Falls is probably the best example how each waterfall in
the Pocono highlands is as different, as individual as a fingerprint.
From I-84, take the
US-209 exit at Matamoras and follow US-209 south through Milford. About 3
miles south of Milford you will see SR-2009 and a sign indicating that this is
the road to Raymondskill Falls. About 1� miles up this road, on the left, is
the parking area. .
