An experienced businessman, Shreenivas Shah serves as president and CEO of BabyVision, Inc., in Poughkeepsie, New York. Recreationally, Shreenivas Shah enjoys hiking. The Hudson Valley boasts a number of excellent hiking locations, including several that include beautiful waterfalls.
Perhaps the most popular waterfall hike is Kaaterskill Falls, which is the highest two-tier waterfall in the state. The short hike is only about two miles round trip, but the elevation gain is more than 500 feet, so it can still be a bit of a challenge. Hikers should be prepared to deal with crowds, but the gorgeous views are worth it.
Dover Stone Church is another path with a great waterfall view. Located in Dover Plains, this path crosses a brook and heads into a large cave that looks almost like the entrance to a cathedral, which is how the trail got its name. While the waterfall is beautiful, the sound of the water crashing echoes through the cave for a truly remarkable experience.
Hikers may also want to check out Awosting Falls in Minnewaska State Park. While hiking to the falls, individuals get to follow along Peter’s Kill and see it cut through the rocks. For some added excitement, individuals can follow the carriageway to Sheldon Falls and see the remains of a stone power station from 1922.
