Plungeworthy rates Ringing Rocks Falls 5/10 — if you're passing. The score weighs its scale, how confidently it's mapped, and its character.
What you'll find
Know what this listing is: Ringing Rocks Falls is not in New Jersey. It's High Falls in Ringing Rocks County Park, Bucks County, Pennsylvania — on the west side of the Delaware River, a bit inland from Upper Black Eddy. The database point drifted across the state line.
The falls itself is a roughly 30-foot drop that often runs dry, in a park far more famous for its boulder field of rocks that ring like bells when struck with a hammer.
We're keeping the page so the record is straight, but it doesn't belong in any New Jersey ranking. If you're already crossing the river for it, the boulder field is the real attraction.
