Moss Island
This unique island in Little Falls
This unique island in Little Falls, just 15 minutes east of Herkimer, is located between the Mohawk River and the New York State Barge Canal. Known for its large 40-foot deep potholes, the island is covered in dwarf oak and glacial striations are visible in some places.
Often referred to as an outdoor gym, Moss Island is a popular place with local rock climbers due to its wide range of very easy to very hard climbs. Admission to parking, the lock and Moss Island is free.
