Choosing a swimming spot for the weekend can be tough work in Connecticut! We have so many options, from beaches to ponds and everything in between. But this place offers beautiful crystal clear waters in a secluded spot. Nature will completely relax you here!
Indian Well Falls is located in Shelton and is perfect for the whole family!
As you can see, there are shallow parts for kids, plus logs laying across the pool for folks who just want to dip their feet. Dogs are allowed in this area of the park too, so bring your furry companion for a dip! Swimming in the clear pool of the falls is a truly magical experience. But of course, the real attraction is the falls themselves.
The water from Indian Hole Brook comes cascading down the rocks for a fifteen foot drop!
You don't want to miss this all natural pool. Cliff jumping is available for the brave of heart, but most folks just come to lounge. The surrounding cliffs form a circular enclosure, which causes the sound of the falls to echo. So let this hidden gem drown out the distractions and have some fun!
So how do I get there?
No worries! This won't take a long and difficult hike like some of its competitors. The trail is located across from the parking area, and the waterfall is .2 miles in. Quick, easy, and so worth it!
Take a quick look at the falls in motion to see just how much of a paradise this place really is!
Wow! This swimming spot is definitely one of the best! But there are even more waterfalls hiding in Connecticut, and plenty of swimming holes too!
