The Barton River is a tributary of Lake Memphremagog, over {{convert|22|mi|km|0}} long, in northern Vermont in the United States.

It runs north from Glover through Barton, Brownington, Coventry and drains through Newport into Lake Memphremagog's South Bay.

Course

The Barton River arises from the fountains of the former Runaway Pond in Glover.

The Vermont Route 16 north of Glover to Lake Memphremagog stretch of the river is {{convert|21.5|mi|km|1}} long and is rated by American Whitewater as a class I-III section.[1] Glover is {{convert|20|mi}} distant from Memphremagog.

Roaring Brook empties Parker Pond into the river in southern Barton near route 16.

One of the head branches is the drain from Crystal Lake in the village of Barton.[2]

After leaving Barton village, the routes of US Route 5, Interstate 91 and the railroad, all follow the course of the Barton River valley and the river, north to Newport.

The Willoughby River flows from Lake Willoughby into the Barton River in Orleans and provides considerable volume. Orleans was once called "Barton Landing" and was the place where, historically, craft could be safely loaded for transport north.

After leaving Orleans, it flows through eastern Irasburg, through Coventry and then into Lake Memphremagog.

The following areas are in the Barton River watershed: Derby, Coventry, Brownington, Irasburg, Barton, Westmore, Lake Willoughby, Crystal Lake, Shadow Lake, Parker Pond, and Brownington Pond.
