great swimming holes. LOWER gorge only. Upper gorge is beautiful to observe but unsafe for swimming.
Try to visit at "off peak times." A parking lot accommodating 8 cars is located adjacent to Dugway Road near the southern property line. This lot is often full on warm summer days. Cars can also park along portions of Dugway Road south of the parking lot where the road shoulder is wide enough to enable cars to PULL ENTIRELY OFF of the travelled portion of the road. North of the parking lot the shoulder narrows and there is little to no parking along the road.

Spectacular swimming holes. Lower and upper. But avoid after heavy rain. 18 people have drowned here including a state police diver recovering a drowning victim. Avoid weekend crowds and sometimes its closed so check before you leave.
The gorge attracts some of the wildest personalities. On the average summer weekend, you will see many young adults leaping off sloping gorge walls, and others diving into swimming pools that really are not deep enough to warrant safe diving practices. Vermont has a plethora of fine swimming holes, so why risk it here? If you can, resist the temptation of the pools here and simply view the gorge and falls from a distance. If you must swim, stick to swimming in the large channel below the bottommost falls. The rugged gorge here is quite neat, but you will have to safely navigate to a few different vantage points to see all of its intricacies. The main falls here is a plunge that dumps into the head of the gorge.
