Bromley Forest is a bouldering area in Vermont's Manchester Ranger District, part of the Green Mountain and Finger Lakes National Forests. The Forest Service manages the land, and the climbing sits within a cluster of bouldering spots, with Right Vale and Left Vale each about 0.2 miles away. The area is a small, compact bouldering destination. Two routes are listed, both boulders. Hullabaloo is rated V1-2, and Stalker is V7. The grades span a wide range, from easy to challenging, so climbers can pick a problem to suit their level. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical July averages from a nearby weather station in Peru run to a high of 75°F and a low of 56°F, and the station sits about 550 feet lower than the forest, so temperatures here run a little cooler. Nearby, the Spruce Peak hike is about 1.4 miles away, and Bromley Shelter offers camping about 1.5 miles off. East Dorset is a hike about 2.2 miles away, and Hapgood Pond, about 5 miles out, has fishing.
