THE FALLS:

If Sperry Falls were an inch or two shorter, it would have missed our 5-foot minimum requirement for a waterfall. This matters not, however; the falls are much more attractive than their height would lead you to believe. A rock-outcrop splits the brook in two as the water drapes down into a medium-sized pool, which is unfortunately off-limits due to the fact that this is a public water supply. Sperry Brook is certainly one of Connecticut’s prettiest brooks, and Sperry Falls is likely to be the finest attraction along it.


TRAIL INFORMATION:

To reach the falls, follow the only path that stems from the parking area 0.1 mile to the falls.
