The Ultimate Jogini Falls Manali Trek Guide – Here’s Everything You Need to Know!
Manali is the perfect location in Himachal Pradesh for some scenic hikes and trekking. You’ll be walking in amongst lush forests, over babbling streams with mountains all around you!
However, if you’re on a tight time frame, you may find that a 2/3 day hike is not possible on your itinerary.
But, don’t fret. There are many really lovely short treks you can do around Manali as well. One of those is the Jogini Falls Trek.
This easy hike from Vashisht will lead you to one of the best waterfalls in the area and, from here, you can get some incredible views as well.
A lot of companies seem to advertise that you need to pay to go on this trek with a guide. But, it’s easy to go self-guided as well and it won’t cost you a penny.
Here is my complete Jogini Falls Manali Trek guide with detailed directions and everything you need to know before you go!

What is Jogini Falls?
The Jogini Waterfall is a 160-foot cascade that crashes over the mountains and into the Beas River and Kullu Valley below.
It’s located near Vashisht village in Manali and the waterfall gets its name from the village goddess known as Jogini.
The area, river, and forest around the waterfall are seen as sacred due to it being a place where one of the Shakti Peethas fell. Making it a place of Feminine Power.
If you’re unfamiliar with Shakti Peethas, they are considered holy places to Hindus.
According to sacred Hindu texts, a Shakti Peetha is a place where Lord Shiva’s Wife’s body fell. She was called Sati and, when she died, Shiva could not stop mourning her.
He carried her body around endlessly and started to perform his ‘Rudra Tandava’ or dance of destruction. He was causing havoc in the process and threatened to destroy the Earth.
Knowing full well that Shiva could not be tamed while he had Sati, Vishnu decided to cut her body up into 51 pieces and they fell across India. Now, there are temples dedicated to each place where Sati’s body parts fell.
In Vashisht and the Jogini falls, the goddess is said to reside in the waters of this waterfall. So, it’s important to respect the area surrounding it on your visit.
A very basic description. But, if you wanted to learn more, you can read my Kamakhya Temple guide . It’s for Guwahati. I’ve actually been to 10 of these Shakti Peetha temples now!

Where is the Jogini Falls in Manali & how to visit?
Although many people advertise this waterfall as being in Manali, it’s actually accessible around 4 kilometres away from New Manali in the village of Vashisht (Bashisht).
There is no short way to access Jogini Falls by car or by rickshaw. You can only access the waterfall by taking a trek.
From New Manali, you’ll need to trek around 4 kilometres to access the start of the Jogini Falls trail in Vashisht village.
So, if you wanted to save some energy you could take a car or rickshaw to Vashisht temple. From there, you can start your hike.
From Vashisht Temple, the trek to Jogini Falls is around 3 kilometres through a forest trail. But, it’s not a flat path and does have some steep hills and steps in order to access it.
![The Ultimate Jogini Falls Manali Trek Guide - Here’s Everything You Need to Know! 3 Jogini Falls Vashisht Manali](https://thirdeyetraveller.com/wp-content/uploads/jogini-falls-manali-vashisht-trek-8-of-22.jpg)
How long does the Jogini Waterfall trek take?
This completely depends on where you start from, your levels of fitness, and whether you want to take breaks or not. You’ll also need to schedule in time to relax at the waterfall, if you want to go swimming, take photos etc.
If you’re starting your trek from the Old/New Manali area, it will be around 6/7 kilometres one way (14 kilometres total) . So, the walk and visit will take you around 3-6 hours.
If you start off your trek in Vashisht, it will be a lot shorter at 3 kilometres one way (6 kilometres in total). You’ll probably save yourself an hour or so. So, I’d factor in around 2-4 hours from Vashisht itself.
Again, it depends on a variety of factors like if it’s been raining making the path muddy, whether you choose to stop for chai, how long you decide to stay at Jogini falls etc.
But, I’d definitely plan at least a half-day out of your Manali itinerary to complete this walk. Don’t leave it too late in the afternoon as you don’t want to be out here trekking in the dark.
As we had just got off our overnight bus, we decided to hit the ground running and go out straight away for this trek. Ha, that was a huge mistake!
So, as we were tired, we took our time getting there over a few hours. But, I didn’t mind as the views were incredible anyway.
We also spent way more time than we anticipated at the falls just relaxing and dipping our toes in the water. As well as drinking a steaming hot cup of chai in the treehouses on the way back. It was a lot nicer to go slower and take it all in.

What is the best time to visit?
Like most of India, Manali in Himachal Pradesh is a seasonal town. Winters can see it completely snowed under with no transport to access it!
Most attractions and restaurants open from around April – September. So, if you did want to visit Manali, I’d plan to travel around the Summer/early monsoon season.
But, saying that, Jogini Falls isn’t a paid-for hike or attraction. There is no entrance fee. It’s open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, all year. There are no restrictions on when you visit.
The best months to visit Manali are in India’s summer season around April – June. This is when there is less chance of rain and landfalls. The temperatures are cooler and paths won’t be as muddy.
By June – September, Manali does see a lot of rainfall. It gets quite muggy and, if there have been heavy rains, the pathways here could be pretty mucky. So prepare with waterproofs.
If you did visit in the offseason, you can still go on this trek but it will be riskier as it’s icy. However, I’ve heard that the Jogini falls freeze into ice and it’s magical!

Does it cost money to visit & can you go self-guided?
No, the Jogini Falls trek is completely FREE to go on and you don’t need to go with a guide either.
A lot of companies will advertise this trek as a tour in a package in order to make money. They will make it seem like you can’t go alone. But, this is not true at all.
It’s completely possible to visit Jogini Waterfall self-guided.
Although there aren’t any signs on the trail to guide your way to these falls, it’s really easy to follow the single-track trail through the sanctuary forest.
There is even a Google Map pin for it, so you could download an offline map on Maps.Me if you have no signal or data.
To help you out, I’m going to give you some detailed directions below.
![The Ultimate Jogini Falls Manali Trek Guide - Here’s Everything You Need to Know! 6 Jogini Falls Trek Manali](https://thirdeyetraveller.com/wp-content/uploads/jogini-falls-manali-vashisht-trek-19-of-22.jpg)
Things to prepare for your Jogini Falls Trek
Before you go on the trek, there are a few things you should prepare;
- Walking shoes – I wouldn’t say you need proper walking boots to do this trek but a good pair of shoes like trainers is easier. I wore my sandals and it was a stupid idea. It made walking up and down the steep hills that much harder and I kept slipping!
- Waterproofs – I usually don’t wear overalls or waterproofs in India as I find it too muggy. But, it’s a good idea to have a waterproof backpack for your valuables and electronics in monsoon. You can get soaked.
- Offline Map / Maps – I didn’t have any sort of map or directions as I asked locals on the way. But, you could easily download an offline map to help out if you were afraid of getting lost.
- Water – Always take water with you. Whether you choose to buy some in Vashisht or take your own reusable bottle. Although the water from the falls is fresh and you could refill your water bottle with it, I don’t recommend drinking it. If you’re not used to the local water, it could make you seriously ill. That is unless you have something like purifying powder to clean it with.
- Snacks – There are plenty of cafés and chai stalls on the way. They sell chai, coffee, water and some fizzy drinks. They even have some snacks available like biscuits and instant Maggi noodles. But, if you want food at Jogini falls, there are no facilities. So, stock up for a picnic.
Please: if you take food in plastic bags and wrappers or buy single-use bottles, remember to take your trash with you to dispose of it later.

Detailed Jogini Waterfall Trek directions
There are a few ways to access the trail for the waterfall but the easiest way is to firstly access the small village of Vashisht and start from there;
1. Navigate over to Vashisht village
If you want to access Vashisht in Manali, you can easily walk from either Old Manali or New Manali in around an hour (4km).
Vashisht is actually much cheaper for accommodation and food. So, if you were on a shoestring budget, you could base yourself here for trekking!
This used to be the main place to stay for hippie travellers before Old Manali. This is because it’s much more peaceful with less traffic and bother.
If you’re based in New Manali or Old Manali and didn’t fancy walking, you can easily grab a rickshaw to Vashisht for around 100 rupees.
I wouldn’t blame you as it’s best to save your energy for the hike!

2. Locate Vashisht Temple
So, once you’ve arrived in Vashisht town, you’ll need to make your way over to Vashisht Temple.
It’s a tiny place, so you’re not likely to get lost. But, if you find yourself stuck, ask a local to direct you to the main temple here.
This temple is actually really pretty, intricately carved out of wood, and worth a look in. Like all temples in India remember to take off your shoes and make sure you’re appropriately dressed.
Vashisht temple is also famous for its ‘hot springs’ nearby that apparently have healing properties.
We were tempted to look for it but, for me, I’ve always been a little disappointed with these ‘hot spring’ type attractions. They always sound more magical than reality.
For one, women can’t really swim in there without being fully clothed meanwhile boys can swim around almost naked in their boxers. Yes, I know it’s the culture but it doesn’t half annoy me sometimes.
Also, there’s rarely ever any ‘hot’ water involved in these natural hot springs But, you’re welcome to try! Anyway, I digress, that’s a post for another day.
Once you find the Vashisht Temple, follow the trail behind it to access the Jogini Falls walking trail!

3. Start the trek towards Jogini Mata Temple through the Sanctuary Forest
You’ll instantly be relieved as soon as you walk out of Vashisht Town. Although it is quieter than that of Manali, it’s still not immune to traffic and noise.
Once you’re out in nature, you’ll love the feeling of hearing nothing. Just peace and quiet!
It’s a single-track path really the whole way and nearer the start/end of the trek, you’ll find many cafés and stalls on the path. You could stop here to buy snacks or have a warm chai (more on that later)!
After you walk past the majority of the cafés, you’ll end up entering amazing apple orchards, rolling rivers, and bridges over babbling brooks! It’s extremely scenic.

Eventually, the trail will lead you inside a dense Sanctuary forest. These are sacred grounds that are part of the Jogini Temple.
Many villagers come here to meditate, pray and leave offerings for the goddess. You may even find locals sleeping overnight, places where food has been prepared, or small offerings.
There are signs to tell you but it’s important to remain quiet through this forest out of respect. Lots of people come here for healing and don’t want to be disturbed from their peace.
Not that many people seem to heed this notice. But, I always believe it does no harm to respect the rules.
Once you’ve come out of the forest, this is when you’ll see the Jogini Mata Temple with another more modern shrine nearby

4. Walk passed the Jogini Mata Temple and you’ve made it!
From what I could see, this temple is not a place where tourists can visit. But, it is still nice to stop and have a quick peek from the outside.
Just beyond the outskirts of the temple area is the bottom of the Jogini Waterfall!
From here, you can access the Beas River and a small pool at the bottom where lots of people cool off and dip their feet. Lots of people also go swimming in the pool as well.
You can chill out here and relax at the bottom of the falls, even pull out a picnic by the water if you wanted to.
But, you can barely see the waterfall cascade from the bottom. So, if you wanted to get a closer look at the waterfall in the mountains. I’d recommend hiking up the steep hillside to the upper viewpoint.

5. Alternative route – head up the hillside to take a closer look at the waterfall
Now, I’m not going to lie to you, the walk up the hillside to get a closer look is pretty steep.
Remember that I said I had sandals on?! Yeah, I really regretted my choice of footwear when I decided to climb up this hill. Don’t be as irresponsible as me.
There isn’t really a beaten track or trail at all to get to the top. So, you’re almost scrambling up the hillside to reach the peak.
![The Ultimate Jogini Falls Manali Trek Guide - Here’s Everything You Need to Know! 15 The uphill climb to Jogini Falls View](https://thirdeyetraveller.com/wp-content/uploads/jogini-falls-manali-vashisht-trek-2-of-22.jpg)
At one point, due to the hill being muddy, I fell and almost tumbled down the hill! Luckily, my friend grabbed me but he said his heart nearly fell out of his chest! Thankfully, I didn’t roll too far haha!
Despite the scrambling, it is well worth climbing to the top. From here, you can really see the cascade falling through the mountains and the views are spectacular as well.
There are also lots of overhanging rocks that you can climb and little places to explore around this area. So, go for it!
The only thing I did hate more than going up, was trying to get back down.
The trail doesn’t really lead anywhere else beyond the waterfall, or, not that I’m aware. So, we just started to head back to Vashisht once we were done.

6. See the lower Jogini waterfall
As well as seeing the view of the waterfall, there is the option to trek over to the lower waterfall area up the mountain a little bit.
This is by far the most impressive experience as you’ll see the full force of the cascade but it will take a lot longer to trek too.
Here you can go stream hiking, swimming, and explore the cave beneath the mountains where the waterfall hits the Beas River.
For us, we were simply too tired and were pretty happy with our impressive lookout from the top!
But, if you’re feeling energised, you can head further on into the waterfall if you wish. It will require a bit of climbing upstream but I’ve heard it’s well worth the extra effort.
7. Stop off at the many chai stall ‘treehouses’ on the way back!
So, once you’re ready to head back, you’ll come across those amazing tea stalls that will be waiting for you!
We decided to treat ourselves to a steaming cup of chai on the way back from our walk. It was almost like a treehouse that overlooked the mountains and it was the perfect place to chill out for a while.
I definitely slept well later that evening as we were pretty much running on empty.
I was so glad we did it though as the Jogini waterfall is well worth seeing in Manali!

Looking for more things to do in Manali?
Manali is breathtaking! As it’s located high up in the mountains of Himachal Pradesh, you don’t have to go far to see the views. They will be all around you!
A lot of travellers choose to hang out in the many amazing cafés here, I’d highly recommend checking out Dylan’s Café and trying their incredible cookies.
If you do fancy exploring some of the areas, there are lots of amazing attractions to explore. You could visit the amazing Hadimba temple to learn about local Hindu culture.
I loved my day trip up to the Rohtang Pass, also known as India’s most dangerous road! We hired a car with some other travellers and made the journey up into the mountains. You can read about that here.
A few days later, we then also made our journey up to Leh Ladakh via the same road. If that is your plan next make sure you read my bus journey guide here. Or, my Ladakh travel guide here.
There are so many amazing things to see in Manali. So, make sure you read my complete Manali travel guide for more options.

Does it take 3-4 from Vashisht to the Jogini falls, or the entire trek (other than the time we spend at the falls) takes 3-4 hours from Vashisht?
Hi shreetama, it will take around 3-4 hours from the town of Vashisht itself! It’s a long old hike there, so take water and breaks when you need. Stay safe, Sophie x
Jogini waterfall trek starts from Vashisht village and it is 4 km away from Vashisht temple and 7.5 km from Manali bus stand.
The main thing about Jogini Waterfall Manali is that the stream of water makes it into two waterfalls. It takes 10-15 minutes to reach the first waterfall and again the next 20-25 minutes to reach the top waterfall. There is a different way from the first waterfall to another.
Jogini waterfall Manali got its name because of Jogini goddess of Vashisht temple. Its water gets merged into Beas River downstream. You should do a Jogini waterfall trek in December or in the rainy season. I have heard that Jogini waterfall Manali in December creates a different enthusiasm because of the winter season.
Trust me if you come to explore Manali and Jogini falls trek Manali is not there in your bucket list then in my opinion your trip will remain incomplete.

Best time to visit Jogini Falls
![jogini waterfall trek Jogini falls - 2nd tier](https://www.travelcharacter.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/2nd-tier-jogini-falls.jpg)
Jogini falls is truly a natural wonder where you don’t have to pay anything to visit. So any time of the year would be the ideal time to visit Jogini falls. But if you love the soothing sound of falling water and lush green valleys then summer & monsoon (April to September) is the best time to visit Jogini Falls. During rain, the waterfall looks wonderful as this is the time when the stream becomes active and falls become thunderous. Monsoon is the time when the Jogini fall reaches its peak. But due to rain the path becomes slippery so be prepared with your trekking gears.
If you love snow and freezing falls then winter is the perfect time to visit Jogini Falls. During peak winters the waterfall freezes and looks amazing.

Besides the apparent natural beauty of the waterfall, the place is of religious importance too. The temple of the village goddess Jogini Mata is located at the base of the waterfall. Locals visit the temple for Mundan(Chudakaran) and on some other occasions.
Climbing the rock cliff to reach the top of Jogini Waterfall is quite thrilling and takes merely 15 minutes. But if you don’t want to trek anymore then taking a dip in the water pool or just gazing at the grandeur of the waterfall and surrounding nature may give you immense pleasure.
Vashisht Temple
![jogini waterfall trek vashisht temple](https://moxtain.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/blogs/JoginiWaterfall/vashist-temple.jpeg)
6 km away from Manali, there is a local attraction which is a temple dedicated to sage Vashisht and the village where the temple is located is named after this sage in his honor.
In the temple, you will find intricate wood curvings at the walls and pillars. The charming traditional Himachali architecture of the temple will compel you to open your camera shutter and indulge in taking a few clicks.
Near the Vashisht temple, there is a sulfur enriched hot water spring that is said to have miraculous power of healing skin diseases and infections. The spring has separate areas for men and women to ensure comfortable dip into the hot water.
Mythological Background
Vashisht temple is said to be 4000 years old. The great sage Vashisht was one of the saptarishis(seven sages) and was Kulguru of Lord Rama.
Rishi Vashisht’s children were killed by Vashisht’s archenemy rishi Vishwamitra. Blinded by grief sage Vashisht came here and went to commit suicide by drowning in the river Beas. But the river was not able to drown the great sage due to his yogic power. Sage Vashisht began meditating and spent some days here.
The river was thus named ‘Bipasha’ which means to free oneself from bondage and the name Bipasha has been converted into Beas over time.
Adjacent to the temple there is another stone temple of Lord Rama and the hot spring is said to be created by Lakshmana, brother of Lord Rama.
On the other hand, the Jogini waterfall is believed to be the place where ‘Joginis’, daughters of Lord Indra used to take baths. The sacred Jogini Mata temple at the foot of the waterfall is revered as Shakti Peeth.

The term “Jogini” originates from Indian mythology and refers to mystical female spirits in sacred places, especially in the Himalayan region. The Jogini Waterfall in Manali is named after these spirits, who are revered as guardian spirits of the surrounding mountains. The waterfall’s association with the Joginis signifies its spiritual significance and cultural importance, making it a sacred sanctuary for pilgrims seeking spiritual renewal and healing.
Jogini Waterfall is located near the picturesque town of Manali in the state of Himachal Pradesh, India. To reach the waterfall, you can embark on a scenic trek from the Vashisht Temple or Old Manali. The trek takes approximately 4 to 6 hours, covering a distance of around 4 kilometers. Alternatively, you can hire a taxi or private vehicle to drop you off at the starting point of the trek.
The best time to visit Jogini Waterfall is during the summer and monsoon seasons, from April to October. During this time, the weather is pleasant, and the waterfall is at its full glory, cascading gracefully down the mountainside. However, it’s advisable to avoid visiting during the winter months when the trail may be covered in snow, making it inaccessible and potentially dangerous.

The trek is suitable for beginners as well as experienced trekkers. The best time to do the trek is from April to October when the weather is pleasant and the trail is clear. You should carry water and snacks with you as there are no shops or cafes on the way. You should also wear comfortable shoes and clothes that can protect you from sunburns, insects, and thorns. You should avoid trekking alone or at night as there are no lights or signboards on the trail. You should also respect the local culture and environment by not littering or making noise.
Another highlight of Jogini Waterfall is the Yogini Mata Temple that is located near the waterfall. The temple is dedicated to Jogini Mata, who is believed to be a manifestation of Goddess Durga. The temple is a sacred place for the locals who come here to worship and offer prayers. The temple also has a natural spring that is considered holy and has healing properties.
The temple is open from 6 am to 6 pm every day. You can reach the temple by following a short trail from the waterfall. You can also take a dip in the spring or drink its water as a blessing from Jogini Mata. You should dress modestly and remove your shoes before entering the temple. You should also refrain from taking photos or videos inside the temple as it is considered disrespectful.
One of the most refreshing and exhilarating experiences at Jogini Waterfall is swimming in the natural pool at its base. The pool is formed by the water that falls from a height of about 150 feet. The water is crystal clear, cold, and refreshing. It is a great way to cool off after a long trek or a hot day.
The best time to swim in the pool is from May to September when the water level is high and safe. You should wear swimwear or clothes that can dry quickly as there are no changing rooms or lockers available. You should also be careful of slippery rocks and strong currents while swimming. You should avoid swimming during monsoon or winter when the water level is low or frozen.
Last but not least, Jogini Waterfall offers some spectacular views of nature that will leave you spellbound. From the waterfall, you can see the majestic Rohtang peaks that are covered with snow all year round. You can also see the sparkling Beas river that flows through Manali valley. From the trek route, you can see the lush green pine forests that surround the waterfall. You can also see the colorful apple orchards that dot the landscape. From Vashisht Temple complex , you can see the panoramic view of Manali town and its landmarks.
The best time to enjoy the views is from sunrise to sunset when the light is perfect and the colors are vivid. You should carry a camera or a smartphone with you to capture the beauty of Jogini Waterfall and its surroundings. You should also use a tripod or a selfie stick to avoid shaky or blurry photos.

Exploring a destination...
The joy of travel comes in exploring new things. Planting your feet somewhere you’ve never been before brings with it the rush of discovery and the joy of pushing back on the boundaries of your world.
But when one does arrive at that fresh frontier, there are ways better than others to begin your journey of discovery. Follow these steps and see the world with a new light.
• Discover a new city through a food tour. Food tour’s are the easiest way to take a tour, learn about the local delicacies, and the best of all, get great tips that aren’t just “local” tips for tourists, but sometimes, lessons for a lifetime too
• Use Public Transportation. When you are in a new city, you can possibly see places and people that you wouldn’t normally see when simply walking to the places that checks your list. Some buses or rails take you to parts of the city you wouldn’t get to see otherwise. Whilst using public transportation, just ensure that you are following the local norms and do remember to watch the locals!
• Find a local festival. Go beyond what other tourists might do while visiting a place. Look for the unique things you would want to do. Use social media or the local tourism website to find out what’s going on locally. You may have to move out of the center of the city to do some of the less popular but more unique things, so just keep that in mind!

Although it is suggested not to get in the pool in monsoon times as the flow of water is exponentially quick and risky.

TIPS FOR VISITING WATERFALLS & SWIMMING HOLES
- DON'T FORGET THE ESSENTIALS - When you visit waterfalls, you should consider bringing all of the following: (a) bug spray; (b) food/snacks; (c) water/sports drinks; (d) camera/smart-phone; (e) guidebook/trail map; (f) daypack/backpack; and (g) hiking shoes, hiking boots or watershoes. A full day hiking packing list can be found here .
- CONSIDER BUYING WATER SHOES - You won't see too many people using them, but watershoes are fantastic pieces of equipment that can make your trip to waterfalls and swimming holes safer and more enjoyable. Merrill and Keen make some fantastic watershoes (here are some great ones from Merrill: womens / mens ).
- LEAVE NO TRACE - When you visit waterfalls and swimming holes, you'll often see some trash and sometimes you'll even find clothing left behind by others. It's really, really sad, and it irks the heck out of us. Won't you consider carrying out some of trash and clothing left by others when you leave? That would leave the spot more beautiful for the next person. Bring a trash bag and be a hero!
- PRIVATE PROPERTY - Many waterfalls and swimming holes are located on private property and so we are truly fortunate that many landowners allow us to enjoy them. If you want to ensure that they stay open to the public, please do your best to leave no trace . If you see a sign that says 'Private Property', turn around and find another waterfall to visit or a different place to swim.
- BRING A DSLR CAMERA AND TRIPOD WITH YOU - If you want to take high-quality photographs of waterfalls, your smart-phone just won't cut it. Get a DSLR camera, a tripod, and learn to master the art of waterfall photography .
- SCOUT FIRST, SWIM SECOND - Never enter a swimming hole without first scouting it, even if you see somebody else swimming in it. Stop and access the risks based upon the depth of water, the power of the current, evidence of slippery rocks, and other safety factors.
- CLIFF JUMPING - Cliff jumping is dangerous. Like, seriously dangerous. Understand the risks before you partake in this activity. Many have died from doing this in New England. Here is a list of all known deaths at waterfalls and swimming holes in New England.
- PLEASE DON'T BUILD ROCK CAIRNS - Please do not build new rock cairns at waterfalls or swimming holes. Cairns are a strong reminder of human presence, and don't we all want to see waterfalls in their natural state and glory? Photographers get particularly annoyed at seeing cairns, so please resist the urge to build them.
- DON'T RELY ON YOUR GPS TO GET YOU TO THE TRAILHEAD - Waterfalls don't have addresses, so relying on your GPS to get you to a trailhead is great way to get yourself lost. You need a guidebook, a road atlas, and/or a hiking map to visit the vast majority of waterfalls in New England. Also keep in mind that waterfalls are often located in wild areas, where smart-phone map apps and car GPS units may not work at all.
- WATERFALLS IN SPRING - The best time to visit waterfalls is generally in the spring during the annual snowmelt (which is April to June). However, most waterfalls will often look great for several days after a significant rain storm.
- HELP KEEP THE ULTRA-SECRET SWIMMING HOLES A SECRET (FOREVER) - If you find some ultra-secret swimming holes, please do your best to keep them a secret. Do not post their locations online or wildly share directions or photos with others. All of the swimming holes that are included in the guidebook and online through this website are the well-known swimming spots. There are many more holes that are much further off the beaten path, but they deserve a chance to stay wild and pristine.
- DON'T SCRAMBLE UP WATERFALLS - So many people been seriously injured and killed in the waterfalls of New England. Many of these folks got too close to a waterfall and slipped and fell. Don't become a statistic: stay far back from the edge.
- WEAR TRACTION IF YOU VISIT WATERFALLS IN WINTER - Visiting waterfalls in winter can be rewarding, but there is often a higher element of danger. You may need crampons, snowshoes, and/or some other form of traction (like Microspikes ) in order to safely hike to waterfalls in winter.
- SUPPORT NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS THAT CONSERVE WATERFALLS & SWIMMING HOLES - There are some organizations in New England that work diligently to conserve and maintain waterfalls and swimming holes. Please consider supporting these organizations, either with their trail maintenance projects or with monetary donations. Here are three excellent organizations engaged in this extremely important mission: the Trustees of Reservations , the Vermont River Conservancy and the Nature Conservancy .

Technically there are 33 waterfalls, but the walking route has 15 with easy access, the rest are harder to get to. The circular route involves climbs a series of ramps and then walking down again on the other side. The entire area is shaded, and the tall trees are covered in moss. The entire experience is very relaxing, despite the exertion.
