This geological formation, carved for thousands of years by the stream that still snakes through it, is the subject of many legends in the region. It is a cave whose triangular entrance evokes the vaulted window of a Gothic cathedral. Inside is a ten-metre high waterfall, more or less impressive depending on the power of the current. When the sun's rays penetrate, it seems as if the water sparkles. According to local legend, this cave was the refuge of the Amerindian chief Sachem Sassacus and his tribe, who hid there following a conflict with the English in 1636. It takes about a kilometre to walk to Stone Church. The trail starts at Route 22, there is a sign that is easy to miss, so don't hesitate to ask for directions: everyone knows Stone Church. Please note that there is no parking on site but visitors are allowed to park at the Dove Elementary School parking lot when there is no school or, if there is a school, at the Freshco 22 Plaza restaurant parking lot.
