Waterfalls

Nestled in the lush foothills of the Cascade Mountains, Silver Falls State Park is a temperate rainforest home to a breathtaking network of ten waterfalls unlike any other in the Pacific Northwest. Fed by underground springs and steady rainfall, these falls transform with the seasons: roaring and full in the spring, gentle and sparkling in the summer, surrounded by vibrant color in the fall, and cloaked in rain and ice in the winter. Following heavy rainfall, you might even see more than ten waterfalls along the Canyon Trail.

All waterfalls are located along the Canyon Trail, part of the Trail of Ten Falls. This trail is prone to overcrowding in the summer, and some falls, like Winter Falls, are seasonal.

Walk behind falls include South Falls, Lower South Falls, Middle North Falls, and North Falls. Click on each waterfall below to learn more:
