Vermont doesn’t have as many natural waterfalls as some states out west, but it does have one gorgeous one that seems to drip with emerald waters. Here’s why you should plan a visit to this beautiful swimming hole and waterfall in the Mad River Valley.

TripAdvisor/Orenrosenfield Splash your way to happiness at this fun waterfall in Vermont. Warren Falls is a natural swimming hole with mesmerizing good looks.

TripAdvisor/ Orenrosenfield Located in the Mad River Valley, Warren Falls is tucked away near the town of Warren. This historic village offers plenty to do and see, but you’ll probably want to head straight to its epic waterfall.

TripAdvisor/ PbeauPlion The enchanting emerald color of Warren Falls is the biggest draw here. Visitors and locals alike love paddling around the falls’ pools and sunbathing on the rocks.

TripAdvisor/ neepng0 If you happen to be around during the winter, the quick drive to the falls is still well worth it. The cascade’s pools turn a lovely shade of blue when they freeze over.

TripAdvisor/ Coop0064 Though some of the pools are quite deep (about 10 feet), we wouldn’t recommend diving. It can be hard to determine the level of the rocky floor and injury is likely if you accidentally dive into a shallow spot.

TripAdvisor/ Palmgirl33 Still, you can have plenty of fun simply wading, floating, and riding the falls down their rocky ledges. It’s a great activity for all ages.

TripAdvisor/ RD930 Visiting the falls is free and there is a parking lot located on the right side of Route 100. Be sure to pack snacks, water, and your sense of adventure.
