Silver Falls State Park, OR

Silver Falls State Park is a special place. I've never seen so many waterfalls in one place. And each has its own character. Please enjoy the photos and videos.

It took me 4.5 hours to hike the 7.5 miles of the Trail of Ten Falls. This was the longest hike in both distance and time that I'd undertaken in a long time.

The ten waterfalls are found on two trails, Canyon Trail and Rim Trail. I enjoyed the Canyon Trail more because it had 8 of the 10 waterfalls and followed along different forks of Silver Creek on the canyon floor.

The Rim Trail was at a much higher elevation through the forest. Also, much of it is close to the road so you can hear vehicle traffic which can break the mood.
