Tucked into Oregon’s lush green paradise—this is South Falls at Silver Falls State Park. One of the rare places where you can walk behind a roaring waterfall and feel the mist kiss your skin. Nature doesn’t get much more cinematic than this 🌿💧

(1 of 50) A waterfall a day for 50 days:

North Falls is the main waterfall on the north side of Silver Falls State Park, the water features a deep recess hiking trail behind it that offers a stunning view.

Just returned from a fun camping trip with my daughter to #SilverFallsStatePark. It was absolutely gorgeous! The #naturetrail by the camp ground was a one mile treasure with so many blooming flowers. I loved using my #iPhone for #PlantID. The swipe up to identify a flower was so useful. My new favorite!

Another bird from yesterday's hike. Would any trip to Silver Falls be complete without seeing a Steller's Jay?

Yesterday, I hiked the Trail of Ten Falls at Silver Falls State Park in the mid-Willamette Valley, Oregon. I encountered this raven at the junction of the Canyon Trail and the spur to Middle North Falls. It was the closest I've ever been to a raven in the wild; this one was not afraid of humans and looked to be expecting a snack from us. Sorry, buddy.

Recreating means playing in or around the falls other than swimming. When the park ranger asks you if you’ve been “swimming” you can’t claim you were wet because you were just “observing pond life”or some other lame excuse.

Unfortunately people have died there doing crazy stuff.

They have tree climbing at Silver Falls too. You get a great view from the 200 ft high canopy. If only you had more time …..
