Begin your adventure with a scenic drive to Silver Falls State Park. Upon arrival, embark on a moderate hike through the park's stunning canyon. Discover South Falls' amphitheater and learn about its history as the centerpiece of a failed attempt to become Oregon's first National Park.
Descend into the up-and-down trails of the canyon, encountering century-old trees, wildflowers, mosses, lichens, and mushrooms. Experience up-close encounters with some of the state's most unusual and impressive waterfall formations.
Explore 4-6 waterfalls, enjoy snacks, and have the option to purchase a light breakfast or lunch from the cafe. Your hike will be between three and eight miles (5 - 13 km) depending on group energy and desire.
This is an active tour, so the ability to walk up and down hills and hike at least two miles (3.5 kilometers) is required.
