Winding wooded gulf past Moss Glen Falls.

VT 100 threads the Granville Gulf Reservation, a winding wooded stretch through the Green Mountains between Hancock and Warren. The fully paved road passes the eighty-foot Moss Glen Falls and follows brooks through protected forest. Mind the moose and deer, fallen leaves in autumn, and winter ice.

Sources

  • “The one don’t-miss highlight of this middle section of Route 100 is Granville Gulf State Reservation... The Green Mountains rise steeply to either side of the road, and just off the west side of the road, delicate Moss Glen Falls tumble down through craggy cliffs to a gurgling stream.”
