This primitive spot draws you in with its clear, crisp waters flowing gently beneath a steel bridge, creating a peaceful, natural atmosphere ideal for cooling off on a summer day. Its straightforward access makes it a rare and welcome cold-water retreat among Vermont swimming holes.

Getting There

You reach Twin Bridges by heading east on RT 107 and driving 3.6 miles past the White River Fish Hatchery sign. Turn left onto Bridge Street, where ample parking awaits. No hiking is necessary, so you arrive right at the swimming area, making it an easy destination despite its rustic charm.

What to Expect

The water is brisk and revitalizing, offering a brisk contrast to Vermont’s warm summer air. The area remains quiet, with few other visitors, allowing you a calm, undisturbed swim in nature. Facilities are minimal, keeping the spot raw and natural—bring what you need and enjoy the unspoiled setting beneath the bridge.

Tips for Visitors

Visit during summer when the water, while cold, is most refreshing. Bring sturdy water shoes to navigate rocky areas and a towel for drying off. There’s no fee or formal amenities, so pack out all trash and respect the natural environment to keep this spot pristine.
