Conklins Gully, NY

Conklin's Gully, part of the sprawling 6800-acre High Tor Wildlife Management Area in Naples, NY, is adjacent to the upland unit of the WMA. The only formal trails that explore this gully follow the rim and have several stunning scenes of the gorge and Angel Falls. Exploration (creek hiking) of the gorge is permitted but challenging.

Rim Trail

Do not attempt the rim trail unless you are in good physical condition. Lots of roots, uneven ground, and the steep inclines/declines can be quite strenuous.
