The Sterling Gorge Falls is a series of short cascading falls in the Sterling Gorge; there are three falls, six cascade sets, and eight pools. Not all of them, however, are visible from the trail, especially in the summer when there are leaves on the trees. The fall is accessed via a short interpretive trail that has several signs about the history, geology of the gorge, and local stories about the area, making it a great outing for people of all ages. You can swim in the pools, which are accessed by picking up the trail across the bridge from the parking lot and following it to the middle set of falls where there is a large pool that is perfect for swimming. These waterfalls are beautiful and a fantastic place to cool off in the hot summer months. As an added bonus, they are far less crowded than other falls in the Stowe area.
