This is the tunnel that leads you from the storm king parking lot to the trails for both storm king and Marymere Falls. Storm king is a 4+ rated trail to the top of the mountain -but with FANTASTIC views on a clear day. The 1.5 mile trail to the falls is easy and flat. ALTHOUGH to see the whole falls you must climb up a steep 1/4 mile with switchbacks and big steps.
