Michael's New England Hiking: Glen Falls Brook

Glen Falls, also called Cave Falls, is a 25-foot plunge through a narrow gap into a round pool on Glen Falls Brook in the Fairlee Town Forest. Michael's New England Hiking says to park in the Cross Rivendell Trail hiker lot across Lake Morey Road from the boat launch. The trail to the falls does not start at that lot; it starts a little farther up the road, directly across from the tennis court. That is the shortest and gentlest path to the falls. Return the same way. More cascades lie above the main falls.
