Still closed as of 11/16/20nnEdit: Trail parking remains closed as of the end of March.
Really nice hike from the parking area below the lower falls to the upper falls. Roughly 2.7 mile one way trip on an easy to moderate trail that follows close top the brook at some points and then veers deeper into the woods at others. While the falls aren't the largest or most impressive you'll see it is a scenic and enjoyable hike. Allow about 3.5 hours if you like to stop and take pictures or eat lunch along the way. It's a carry in carry out trail and there are no facilities at least at the lower parking area.
Good size water falls flowing into a steep gorge/ravine area! Fun to visit in all 4 seasons. Beautiful ice structures in the winter. Spring is extremely muddy and buggy and the only time I don't recommend going. After a heavy rain it is majestic but slightly dangerous near the water.
We parked at the Dow Road parking spot and made our way to the Purgatory brook trail. It was well marked. However once we got past the middle falls, the markers were few and far in between and it occasionally led to opening the trail map and GPS to verify we were on the right track.nnThe falls were beautiful, we went in early April so some parts of the fall were frozen as were a few sections of the trail. Had to step carefully over wide patches of ice.
It's great for young peoplenWe are 81 and 74 found a little bit difficult to climb.But we enjoyed with grand children and family.
