Bingham Falls Details

A beautiful cascading waterfall is always a rewarding sight after a hike through the woods, making this one of Vermonts most popular hikes. Located in Smugglers Notch State Park, this hike offers stunning scenery, shaded woods, and even a sparkling blue pool for swimming. By no means is this 1/2 mile trail difficult, although it is a little steep down up the falls. And bring durable footwear (no flip flops or sandals) because the rocky stairs are usually wet and slippery from the river.
