Getting there
Tollgate Falls is a small cascade on a brook in Peru, Bennington County (county stored Unknown and flagged), in the hills between the Batten Kill and West River watersheds. It is and does not carry a canonical entry in the main Vermont waterfall references; surrounding banks are largely private. Expect a brief roadside look from a allowed shoulder and a short scramble where public access exists. The cascade runs best in spring and within a day or two of rain. For a developed Peru-area stop, Hapgood Pond Recreation Area in the Green Mountain National Forest and Emerald Lake State Park beach in East Dorset are the stronger choices.
