Griswold is a community dotted with rivers and lakes and contains many beautiful hills and small mountains. The two rivers that flow through the town are the Pachaug and the Quinebaug.

The Borough of Jewett City is situated at the junction of the two rivers. From the hills which border it, the Griswold basin presents delightful landscapes. There are points from the roads across Stone Hill where the north end of the valley to Jewett City spreads out in lovely vistas.

From the top of the hill on Norman Road, the view is not limited to Griswold but takes in farms and bits of villages in a number of adjoining towns. Geologically Griswold is very interesting and has been studied for years by geologists from all over New England.

There are no natural ponds in Griswold. The larger part of its surface is drained by the Pachaug River. The distance from the source of the Pachaug to its mouth in a straight line does not much exceed 9 miles, yet it winds with such surprising curves, and so tortuous is its natural course through the swamps and mud flats between the hills, that the waters from its source travel is 44 miles before they reach the mouth.
