About this map

Bethel sits at the confluence of the White River and the Third Branch White River, anchoring a landscape shaped by narrow river valleys and high Vermont ridges. The eastern edge of the Green Mountain National Forest reaches into this area, where local geography is defined by prominent peaks like Vulture Mtn and Mt Lympus. Smaller settlements such as Gaysville, Lympus, and Camp Brook are connected by a network of rural roads that trace the winding paths of Gilead Brook and Stony Brook.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several traditional burial sites, including the Old Church Cem and the small Sylvester Plot Cem near Gaysville. A notable landmark near the northern boundary is the Gilead Brook Covered Bridge, a structural link to the region's transportation history. The presence of the White River National Fish Hatchery highlights the importance of the river system to the local environment and economy.
