Chittenango Falls State Park is a 193-acre park in Madison County, New York, centered on a 167-foot waterfall where Chittenango Creek drops over bedrock about 400 million years old into a gorge. Beyond its scenic appeal, the falls once marked the boundary between the lands of the Oneida and Onondaga peoples, and in 1784 the Oneidas cited the site while describing the limits of their homeland to New York commissioners. The park is also known for day-use recreation and for protecting the endemic, endangered Chittenango ovate amber snail. It draws about 45,000 visitors annually, and its former campground closed in the mid-2000s.
