Bridal Veil Falls is one of eight waterfalls that are comprised by Bushkill Falls, located in Northeast Pennsylvania's Pocono Mountains. Beginning at the headwaters of Bushkill Creek, the water descends the mountain, toward the Delaware River.[1]

The Bushkill Falls area is a popular spot for hiking and birding, and features a variety of trails and bridges that vary in length and difficulty. Often called the "Niagara Falls of Pennsylvania", Bushkill Falls was opened to the public in 1904 by Charles E. Peter.[2]
