The village of Middlebury grew up around the broad falls of Otter Creek, whose roaring waters provided power for a number of 19th-century mills. For gorgeous views, head down to the pedestrian bridge at the foot of the falls, accessed via Mill St or the pedestrian path off Printer's Alley (opposite Middlebury's town green).
