Nearby Spots

Bristol Falls250 ft awaySwimming Holes
Lincoln Gap Road New Haven River context—same river as Bartlett Falls waterfall guide; USGS 04282525 is Brooksville main-stem proxy, not gorge pool depth.View Guide
Bartlett Falls300 ft awayWaterfalls
Lincoln Road falls near Bristol—roadside New Haven River pool; cold water, slick rock, high swim risk if you enter.View Guide
Bristol Memorial Park Falls1.7 mi awayWaterfalls
Bristol Memorial Park Falls is a compact Bristol gorge waterfall with a bridge-side view and enough visual punch to deserve its own page beyond nearby Bartlett Falls. It is a short-stop waterfall guide, not a swimming page, and it works best when framed as a quick but worthwhile Addison County add-on.View Guide
Bristol Ledges3.2 mi awaySwimming Holes
Bristol Ledges is a lower-key Bristol river stop where broad rock shelves and shallow New Haven River channels create a more exploratory swim-and-scramble feel than the headline falls upstream. It is a local-use kind of spot, best for low-water wandering and cooling off, not for big-drop drama or a formal beach setup.View Guide
Warren Upper Pools9.3 mi awaySwimming Holes
Warren Upper Pools are the calmer ledge-and-pocket pools above the main Warren Falls drops, giving you the same Mad River corridor with a little more room to spread out. They are still slick, still river-driven, and still not a casual high-water swim, but they can work as the scout-first alternative when the main falls feel crowded.View Guide
Punch Bowl Swimming Hole10 mi awaySwimming Holes
Punch Bowl Swimming Hole is the better-known private-access Mad River Valley swim page with real local history and strong word-of-mouth awareness. It needs a careful posture because the access norms are different from public river corridors, but it is still one of the most important remaining swim pages in the valley.View Guide
