Lovely stream and falls. Easy to access. Several viewing areas so you can take a longer or shorter hike. Possible to swim in the pools beneath the falls.Full review by yitz10
Hi Do you think moderately good health 60 year olds can mange the hike here? Is it a long hike to the falls? how is the terrain? Thanks
A:
Yes its very easy access, Park along Buttermilk fall road walk down to the right and you will be rewarded with gently flowing pools in that you cansit in to cool off See you there.
Can you tell me the best way to get to watering/swimming hole with children? Coming from Brownsville VT

There is parking along Buttermilk Falls Rd. Enter at the trail head. If you follow trail in then stay to the right there are some nice areas for kids near the middle and lower falls.

It's not really a picnic destination. Better to hike the falls and then drive 5 minutes to Okemo mountain and picnic on the slopes. In fact, if you want to have a picnic/hiking day, drive to the top of the clock tower base at Okemo, park, then hike up to the fire tower. It's a short hike. The views at the top are glorious and there's a ton of empty field space for picnics. Buttermilk is very woodsy and the terrain is uneven. I love it but I wouldn't eat there.
