At a glance
Overview
Twin Cascade (Lower Falls) sits in a steep gully just above the Deerfield River near the east portal of the Hoosac Tunnel in Florida, MA. The traditional approach walks east along the active Pan Am Southern / CSX mainline from the tunnel portal — that is trespassing on a working railroad and people have been struck and killed on these tracks. The lower falls come before the main Twin Cascades drop. Treat it as a viewing reference only; there is no sanctioned casual approach.
