Today, nothing man-made remains of the village except the old furnace and its twin wheel pits. Freedom Falls is located just upstream of Rockland Furnace, on Shull Run.

This creepy tunnel was built in 1915 for use by the Pennsylvania Railroad, but not it is only open to pedestrians and bicyclists. The tunnel is not lighted so be sure to have at least a phone or a flashlight. It is about 3000 feel long and so sort of feel like you are in a scary movie when walking through it.

Freedom Falls along Rockland Station Road in Kennerdell Falls Info: Parking: There is parking available along Rockland Station Road, but I must admit, some of the parking spots are best described as sketchy. Rockland Station Road is barely a two lane dirt road with a pretty good slope, and the parking spaces seem to hang on to the edge of the road.
