March 3, 2021hiked the 7-8 mile loop from south falls clockwise. I think this is the way to do it. the last few miles along the road aren't anything great but still nice. we skipped the upper north falls. trail was muddy in places but not bad at all - totally passable without getting super muddy. there were a fair amount of people on the trail with most wearing masks. beautiful trail - one of the best in the Portland area imo
February 21, 2021Well kept trail lots of nature to take in. Even in the rain.
February 10, 2021January 31, 2021January 28, 2021Great hike. Went late January so al the falls were flowing. Started at North falls. Nice finish :) Either direction is great. If you start at South falls it’s more downhill.
January 19, 2021Lovely trail, well maintained. People out but not crowded.
January 19, 2021This entire trial is a gem of Oregon and must see for anyone traveling through. Be sure to set aside the time to do the entire trial of ten falls loop - it’s well worth it! If you just plan ahead, pack a lunch, water and snacks even the youngest of kiddos can do this hike. It’s mostly flat trails the entire way with the exception of the decent and ascent to those first falls (depending on which parking lot you start at). My family and I typically park at the main parking lot near the South Falls. See ALL of the falls - even the ones like double falls or upper north falls that take a little detour. You will love it. Also, be sure to bring good hiking boots as the trails can be muddy. Best time to come is spring when the falls are really full, or fall when those colors begin to pop.
January 18, 2021Beautiful trail. Very muddy but the weather was perfect. Get there early on the weekends if you want to find parking!
January 17, 2021Silver falls is always beautiful. We wanted to see the falls in winter to see them in all their glory. It was crowded and hard to find parking. Trails were a little slick and muddy but to be expected in winter.
January 10, 2021Fantastic
January 9, 2021Spectacular views. Great trails. Don’t miss this!
January 9, 2021January 8, 2021January 1, 2021December 29, 2020Beautiful trail... amazed of the number of people for a 32 degree day.
December 27, 2020December 24, 2020Slightly muddy in spots, but nothing bad.
December 12, 2020December 9, 2020Great 4 hour trip from Portland total
December 8, 2020December 6, 2020Very beautiful. Amazing there is so much to see.
December 5, 2020Agree with other hikers, definitely well maintained! Pretty popular but it’s easy to understand why, very beautiful.
December 5, 2020Not too crowded, great weather. Last couple miles were pretty boring. Icy/slippery on the steps starting at south lot
November 29, 2020November 28, 2020INCREDIBLE !!! Mother nature is amazing. Its a long hike but so very worth it. I did it in a clockwise direction and the last 2 miles back to the car were so peaceful among the giant trees, gives you time to slow down and absorb it all .... beautiful !
November 28, 2020November 27, 202011/27/2020 Nice trail started early. Hiked trail of 10 falls and then continued on the rim trail. The parking lot was full when we were done. It was muddy but overall a really well maintained trail.
November 25, 2020November 23, 2020November 21, 2020A little bit of a light show by the North Falls but in general it looked like someone turned out n the facet.
