Introduction
Salmon Hole is a quiet section of the Winooski River just North of UVM’s Campus. To get there from Trinity Campus, just walk down the hill on Colchester Ave towards Winooski. Once you reach the first intersection, take a left and walk down that road for a few minutes until you find the Salmon Hole trailhead on your right. As its name infers, Salmon Hole is a good fishing spot due to it being a spawning ground for salmon and other species of fish.
This is a view of Salmon Hole from a small beach that can be found be following the bank of the river from the left of the trail that initially leads you down to the hole. Common trees around this area include the American Beech and Sugar Maple, as well as a few red maple trees. There are also smaller shrubs living among the rocky, including milkweed, and buckthorn.
