Rainbow Falls in Chesterfield, New York offers visitors a stunning natural spectacle with its 100-foot cascade and signature rainbow effect during midday hours. The trail to reach the falls involves a moderate 2.5-mile round trip hike through wooded terrain with some elevation changes, making it accessible for most fitness levels though the return journey is mostly uphill. Visitors particularly enjoy the option to descend stairs to view the falls from its base, though early arrival is recommended due to limited parking and increasing crowds throughout the day.
