The wine is good but the hard ciders is what we really enjoy at Northfield. Pair your visit to this winery with lunch at Foglight Foodhouse and then head over to Happy Trails Brewing Co. Its a great trip through the back roads. Don't forget to look for Beau when you get there! This venue has music on some Saturday nights in a large barn so check them out.

Hiking
This is a beautiful place to hike. There is an overlook trail, which is very short and you can see the fall from above. But, if you want to see the fall from the bottom, be sure to bring water shoes and call ahead for a permit into the gorge. Well worth the trip.
