We’re pretty fortunate to have dozens of waterfalls to visit in Pennsylvania, and a few of them even boast the same name. Buttermilk Falls in Pennsylvania, for example, can be found in Beaver Falls and in New Florence. You’ll find both at the end of a short but scenic path. However, today we’re making our way to the Buttermilk Falls in New Florence, Indiana County, arguably one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Pennsylvania.
