Fall Brook Falls is a 70 foot waterfall near Geneseo. There is a short hike (30 minute) to walk along the stream. It takes about [WWW]45 minutes by car to get to there from Rochester. Getting to the base of the waterfall (and the attached trail) requires traversing a fairly steep canyon wall. It's a great way to spend an afternoon.

Unfortunately the falls is on private property and trespassing is not allowed.

  2. Take exit 8, Road 20A.

  3. Turn right at Lakeville Road.

  4. Lakeville Road turns into South Street.
