The Clyde River is a tributary of Lake Memphremagog, over 33.5 miles (54 km) long, in northern Vermont in the United States.

The Route 105/114 junction to Clyde Road section of Clyde River in Vermont is 21 miles (34 km) long and is rated by American Whitewater as a class I-III section.

With the exception of three miles (5 km) of rapids near its mouth, this is a very sluggish stream, passing through in its course, several natural ponds of considerable size.

[5] The river has its source in Spectacle Pond (length: 1.4 kilometres or 0.87 miles; altitude: 357 metres or 1,171 feet) in Brighton.

The Clyde River forms the principal water-course, flowing through the town from east to west.

It exits this Pond west and into south Lake Memphremagog from the north.

Beavers populate the countryside and sometimes undercut the streamside silver maple, toppling them into the water and creating logjams.

[5] The river winds through farm country, with silver maple and alder dominating the shoreline.

Northern white cedar, an occasional willow, and a variety of shrubs line the 40-foot (12 m) wide waterway, and vegetation dips right into the water.

[citation needed] The term "Clyde" is a popular first name with English origin.

This toponym was officialized on October 29, 1980 at Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) of US federal government.

[12] In the early 19th century a mill dam constructed at Arnolds Falls.

It was located 1,000 feet (305 m) below the current hydro generation station off Clyde Street.

Salmon fishing in Lake Memphremagog and the Clyde nearly stopped when the dam was constructed.
