Barberville Falls Preserve - Poestenkill, NY June 29th, 2024

Barberville Falls is an iconic waterfall on the western edge of the Rensselaer Plateau, emblematic of the area's natural treasures. The 140-acre Barberville Falls Preserve features an excellent and healthy example of a hemlock-northern hardwood forest. It's free of invasive species and home to spring ephemeral wildflowers and diverse wildlife.
Above the falls, the Poesten Kill drains about 35 square miles of the Rensselaer Plateau - an area from Dyken Pond on the north to Taborton on the south. The stream flows down this dramatic waterfall and then passes through a deep gorge.
