About Jeff Falls

Jeff Falls is a chilly, invigorating cold spring in Vermont that offers a refreshing escape amidst rugged natural beauty. The main 7-foot waterfall cascades into a crisp swimming hole surrounded by several smaller falls, inviting you to explore the rocky stream and cool off in pure mountain water. Its primitive setting keeps the atmosphere authentic and peaceful.

Getting There

Located just south of Jeffersonville on Route 108, you’ll find ample parking on the left about half a mile down the road. From there, a well-trodden path leads you upstream to the swimming area within 5 minutes, making access easy yet subtly tucked into the wild landscape.

What to Expect

Prepare for brisk water temperatures that wake your senses and a serene environment framed by churning falls and mossy boulders. Bathing suits are customary here, with an open-air, clothing-optional vibe that reflects the laid-back tone of this Vermont swimming hole. Facilities are minimal, preserving the authentic, natural experience.

Tips for Visitors

Visit during summer to enjoy the sun-warmed air contrasting with the refreshing water. Bring sturdy shoes for rocky terrain and be ready for a quick, invigorating plunge. There’s no fee, so plan to pack out everything you bring in and respect the pristine surroundings to keep this wild spot inviting.
