Canajoharie Falls, located in Canajoharie, New York, is a scenic waterfall destination nestled along a gorge with viewing platforms approximately 100 feet above the falls. Visitors recommend experiencing the falls during spring snowmelt in April or May when the water flow is most dramatic, though summer visits offer opportunities to cool off in the shallow waters. While the natural beauty and swimming spots have historically drawn people to the area, dense foliage during peak seasons can sometimes obstruct clear views of the falls from the designated viewing areas.
