Hiking Area in Pownal

4.0 (4) swimming hole
Directions

The Tubs is a scenic natural swimming area and small waterfall located in Pownal, Vermont. The spot is enclosed by picturesque rocky ledges, creating a tranquil environment for swimming.

Commenters overwhelmingly advocate for 'gatekeeping' natural locations like this to protect them from overcrowding, litter, and environmental damage caused by social media publicity. While a small minority expressed appreciation for the feature, most warned that sharing the location would lead to severe traffic and parking issues.

  • Practice Leave No Trace principles to protect the natural ecosystem.
  • Pack out all trash to keep the swimming hole clean.
  • Be conscious of potential parking delays and local traffic impacts.
