Waterfalls

Salt Creek Falls by Guenther Fuernsteiner   Waterfalls are plentiful throughout the Eugene, Cascades & Coast region. With abundant rainfall and many magnificent rivers, Oregon is a great place to scout falls.

There are a dozen spectacular waterfalls listed below. Many are close to area highways, requiring only a short walk, or at most an easy, picturesque hike in. Some offer wheelchair accessible viewing platforms and can observed year-round.

Against a backdrop of old-growth trees and lava beds, soak up Proxy Falls' beauty; or marvel at Oregon's second-tallest waterfall, the magnificent Salt Creek Falls. 

Closer to the coast, Sweet Creek Falls offers up eleven distinct falls all clustered together.
