Bushkill Falls- A piece of nature heaven on Earth

I am not exactly what you would call an Outdoorsy person. I am not really the camping type or like to spend hours outside, but I do enjoy a good nature walk every once in a while, especially when I have my camera with me. I had that opportunity when I went to Bushkill Falls in Bushkill, PA.

This place is called the "Niagara of Pennsylvania" and it really is! There are a lot of different water falls, both big and small here and the surrounding area is just gorgeous! There are 4 different paths that you can hike on, the longest being the red path that is about 2 miles long. I did that one and taking that one allowed you to see everything there was to see on the property, including a gorgeous lookout onto the Delaware Valley.

If you are looking for a calm place to go with amazing sights of nature, I would whole heartedly suggest Bushkill Falls! A warning for all of you Techy people though: the entire property, along with a small portion of the ride up to it, has a very low or no signal at all. It is a real getaway from the outside world and it is a wonderful way to enjoy nature!
