Skip

The bushwhack or footing feel too rough

You are treating this like a swim page

Before you go

Use the Power Plant Road arrival point, not the falls pin.
Expect a short but rough approach off-road.
Keep the page waterfall-first, not swim-first.
Wet ledges and brook edges deserve a conservative read.
If the route feels sketchy on the day, keep it to a look-only outing.

Nearby Spots

Marshfield Falls2.6 mi awayWaterfalls
Marshfield Falls is a central Vermont waterfall page that broadens the catalog in a corridor that already matters for swim access and back-road travel. It works best as a practical regional waterfall stop, not a marquee attraction.View Guide
Jeudevine Falls9 mi awayWaterfalls
Jeudevine Falls is a more obscure Hardwick-area waterfall page that still helps deepen Northeast Kingdom coverage with a real named destination. It belongs in the catalog as a quiet regional waterfall outing rather than a high-demand tourist stop.View Guide
North Branch Falls11 mi awayWaterfalls
North Branch Falls is a quieter Worcester waterfall stop on the North Branch corridor, with a small waterfall payoff and a more local feel than the best-known Vermont falls. It works best as a short, scout-first waterfall detour rather than a headline swim destination.View Guide
Reeds Falls12 mi awayWaterfalls
Reeds Falls is a difficult Catamount Brook bushwhack waterfall that earns its place mostly on scenic potential and strong enthusiast interest rather than easy access. It should stay framed as an advanced waterfall outing with unknown-distance route-finding vibes, not a casual roadside stop.View Guide
Hancock Brook Falls12 mi awayWaterfalls
Hancock Brook Falls is one of the more worthwhile remaining Central Vermont brook-and-plunge pages, with a Vermont River Conservancy feel and better water character than many smaller authority entries. It works as a waterfall-first page with real swim-hole context nearby, but the main posture should stay scout-first and source-backed.View Guide
Moss Glen Falls (Stowe)17 mi awayWaterfalls
Moss Glen Falls in Stowe is one of the quickest big-payoff waterfall walks in Vermont, with a short trail, a wide multi-tier drop, and easy pairing with a Stowe day. It is best treated as a photo-and-viewing stop rather than a swimming destination, especially when the brook is running hard or the overlook rocks are damp.View Guide
