Winooski Falls is a series of falls over ledges on the Winooski River in downtown Winooski. The city River Walk is a concrete walkway along the falls beside the historic Champlain Mill and Woolen Mill. Start off Main Street near the start of the Winooski/Burlington bridge and follow the walkway along the river; it ends at the woods, where dirt trails continue.
