This is an amazing sight to behold any time of the year. But if you go during the leaf peeping season you will find it difficult to maintain personal space. With that said it's still worth going to see. Parking is abundant but you will have to walk to get a good view. If you take the trail to the lower end of the gorge, it will consume about an hour of time and it's all up hill on the way back. So people with bad knees or problems walking long distance should probably experience the gorge from the bridge. The upper end can be driven to and a short walk to the dam. There are some bathrooms but things these days are weird and I can't understand why a bathroom would be closed but they are. Paved and gravel parking with plenty of handicapped access.

Excellent natural wonder in Quechee, Vermont. If you park at the visitor center- walk back out to the highway and get a view from the bridge. There’s no sidewalk on the visitor center side so be careful. Next, head down into the gorge, there’s a short trail through the woods from the visitors center, and then it’s downhill for 15-20 minutes until you reach the end where you can walk out into the gorge and look back towards the bridge. The view on the way down is mostly obscured behind the fence and dense tree growth otherwise. On the other side of the road from the visitor center, there’s another trail following the river back to the dam. Good views of the dam but, again most of the river is obscured and behind a fence.

Quechee Gorge is high. The fences have gotten higher and more view obtrusive than I remember from years gone by. My Grandfather used to bring my mom, Aunts and Uncles down to the water so they could enjoy the summer with a cool dip. He used to like to fish too. When You come here, there is parking down a way from the bridge, but be careful, just because there is a speed limit doesn't mean the locals follow it. Don't drop Your phone taking pictures, even if You climb down to get it dosen't mean it will be there due to the water, and the fall will probably bust it - just don't drop Your phone or camera in the gorge!

Wife wanted to come here, glad we did. As of October 2024, there is still work being done on the bridge over the gorge but there is still parking at the visitor center and the snackbar/shopping area across the road. The hike down to the river and falls is longer than the sign on the visitor center says but still not too difficult. But remember, a walk all the way down means all uphill on the return. There are benches along the way to rest for those with mobility issues and the overlooks are good also. It is a lovely setting and fun to explore - see the pics and vids attached.
