After months of anticipation, Delphi Falls County Park in New Woodstock New York is officially back open—and it’s better than ever.

For the first time since being closed in 2023, visitors can now enjoy both the upper and lower falls, thanks to a two-phase improvement project that was celebrated with a ribbon-cutting ceremony this week.The upgrades are impressive, and most importantly, they make the park more accessible and visitor-friendly.

Key Enhancements For Visitors

A newly constructed ADA-accessible trail now leads to the base of the lower falls, opening up one of Central New York’s most beautiful natural spaces to even more people. The park also boasts new restroom facilities and the stunning addition of Cascades Hall, a multi-use building available for rent. Whether you're planning a small gathering, business meeting, or celebration, Cascades Hall offers waterfall views, a catering-friendly kitchenette, and a cozy, modern space to host your summer event.

This transformation is the result of years of effort and community support. Originally private land, Delphi Falls was acquired by Madison County in 2018. Since then, local officials and residents have worked together to preserve its natural beauty while improving infrastructure and accessibility.
