POTTER'S FALLS Six Mile Creek 25ft cascading fall, Ithaca's favorite sunbathing spot Fun Facts Trail Info Potter's Falls (a.k.a. Green Tree Falls) is on Six Mile Creek, a natural area full of cascades, rock formations and wildflowers—so many that it was designated a wildflower preserve in 1970. The trail's first mile is believed to hold the greatest wildflower diversity in the state. Hike upstream on Greenway Trail & East Gorge Trail: 2.4mi. Caution, steep sections with poor footing. Moderate Open year round, but often impassible in winter due to ice. 11 DIRECTIONS FROM ITHACA Follow Rt. 79 east from the Commons 1mi and turn right on Giles St. Turn left into the trailhead parking area marked Mulholland Wildflower Preserve, just before the bridge. Swimming prohibited. Dogs allowed on leash. No fee.
