About
Monument Falls is a wide and short waterfall that you can see right from the road! There is also a path to and along the Ausable River that is suitable for small children and families. The Monuments commemorate the 50th and 100th anniversary of the establishment of the Adirondack Park.
Fishing and hiking
This is a very short walk, which is also nice for fly fishers who can gain easy access to the West Branch of the Ausable River.
