Binnen Falls is the last drop of Prospect Park's watercourse, where the stream from the Ravine falls into the Lullwater near the Boathouse. NYC Parks says the northern part of the 0.9-mile Lullwater Trail crosses the Lullwater Bridge, with a view of the Boathouse and nearby Binnen Falls. The Prospect Park Alliance restored the Lullwater viewing platform, which sits at the base of Binnen Falls, in 2025. A second rustic structure overlooks the falls from above, in the Lily Pond area. Binnen Bridge, at the falls, was being restored by the city with detours in 2023.
