Little River State Park Swim Beach1.9 mi awaySwimming Holes
Little River State Park Swim Beach is the public swim area at Waterbury Reservoir in Little River State Park. It is an easy central Vermont lake stop with formal parking, broad public-water access, and a more dependable family setup than the region's informal brook and river dips.View Guide
Falls on the Waterbury Trail2 mi awayWaterfalls
Falls on the Waterbury Trail is a practical authority-style page that helps fill out the Waterbury corridor with a named waterfall feature beyond the best-known swim stops. It should stay simple and trail-add-on in tone.View Guide

Stowe Pinnacle Brook Pools5 mi awaySwimming Holes
Stowe Pinnacle Brook Pools pair a classic Stowe Hollow hike day with cold brook pools and rock ledges along the lower trail corridor. This one works best as a cool-down add-on rather than a destination swim, especially because the brook is small, shaded, and easily changed by recent rain.View Guide
