Nearby Spots
- Trout River Falls3.2 mi awaySwimming HolesTrout River Falls is a Montgomery swimming hole where two short falls drop into a vivid green pool locals also call Three Holes. The pull-off is tiny and the last approach follows the river itself, so save this one for low water and scout every move before you commit.View Guide
- Jay Branch Pools13 mi awaySwimming HolesJay Branch Pools are a lower-key Northeast Kingdom brook stop built around the clear Jay Branch corridor, with cold running water, rocky shelves, and a much less structured feel than the better-known northern Vermont swim holes. It is best approached as a scout-first local river page: easy to cool off in the right conditions, but too lightly formalized to treat like a managed destination.View Guide
- Lowell Falls13 mi awayWaterfallsLowell Falls helps extend Northeast Kingdom waterfall coverage with a real named stop that is more about regional depth than blockbuster demand. It belongs in the catalog as a simple, scout-first waterfall page.View Guide
- Big Falls14 mi awayWaterfallsBig Falls is the short-trail gorge stop on the Missisquoi River at Big Falls State Park, with big water, steep gorge walls, and one of the strongest waterfall payoffs in northern Vermont. The lower river can invite wading and cooling off in gentler conditions, but this is still a powerful river corridor that needs conservative judgment whenever the water is elevated.View Guide
- Jeff Falls2 mi awayWaterfallsJeff Falls is another northern Vermont named waterfall page that gives the catalog more coverage in a region already rich with small brook features. It fits best as a modest scenic stop with authority value.View Guide
- Kings Hill Brook Falls10 mi awayWaterfallsKings Hill Brook Falls is a better-than-average Franklin County waterfall add because it has a distinctive setting below bridges and a pool that keeps it from feeling like throwaway authority content. It is still a lower-demand page, but it rounds out northern Vermont well.View Guide
