20 Best Swimming Holes in the U.S.

"A series of natural "shut-ins" (pools) carved by the East Fork of the Black River in Middle Brook, Missouri, where closed-off swimming areas sit among volcanic rocks more than a billion years old. The park also offers hiking and equestrian trails that pair well with a swim for a full day of exploration." - Talia Avakian Talia Avakian Talia Avakian is a lifestyle reporter based in Los Angeles with a love for outdoor excursions, off-the-beaten-path local finds, remote and historic hotels, and innovations in food.
