The loop is about 9 miles in a semi circle with several roadside pickup areas very close by if you worry about having to walk that far in a single go. It has 9 amazing waterfalls several of which you get to walk under. You will want to take a camera with some extra batteries as you will find hundreds of things you will want to photograph. When I go I take my disabled 5 year old in a wagon and pull him around. There are a few star cases I pull him down that I'm sure freaks out some people to see but my son loves it :)

This is a nice campground. Not much to do other than hike, but if that's all you like to do, then this is perfect! Great place to ride a bike as well!

This is one of the most amazing parks in Oregon and close to tons of other incredible falls. If you campgrounds are full there's nearby state forest.

The unique feature of South Falls, Lower South Falls, and Middle North Falls are the paths that pass behind the falls providing an amazing visual and auditory experience; however, be sure to have a good bag for your equipment to avoid water damage and a decent jacket (preferably water-resistant).

Shellburg Falls

The hike, including the initial 1.25 mile gravel road to the trailhead, is easy to complete within 1-2 hours and only requires a moderate level of fitness. Snacks and water are recommended. Being remote, there are very few hikers on the trails most days, so one shouldn't have a problem finding parking or avoiding crowds. There is extra parking space along the roadside if you do arrive at an ...

Abiqua Falls

This trail is unmarked and a little rough and rugged. The land is privately owned by Mount Angel Abbey, but they don't appear to have problems with courteous hikers. Walking out of the parking area back up the road in the direction you came from, you’ll pass one dirt trail right at the ending of the parking area. Look about a little further down the road (~100 feet) and find the second trail – ...

Upper Butte Creek Falls

From Scott Mills Follow Crooked Finger RD NE for 13.3 Miles to the Upper Butte Creek Trailhead. The last 2-3 miles or so is gravel road with some potholes but most cars shouldn't have a problem. The path down to the falls starts near the bathrooms. A short .3 mile walk on a few switchbacks and you're meet with Upper Butte Creek Falls. This hike is a great hike and easy hike for all family m...
