Description:
This is a wonderful hike! Water flow on the "Trail of 10 Falls" should be powerful at this time of the year. The canyon is lush with greenery year round and spring wildflowers will have emerged.The hike will start at the North Falls parking lot. Lunch break is planned for the South Falls Lodge (about 5 miles in) where there is usually a fire going if we need warmth and food/beverages can be purchased at the Snack bar. If it's a sunny day, we can settle into outdoor seating. After lunch we will hike a mile on the Rim Trail, then drop back into the canyon on the Winter Falls trail and enjoy a number of the waterfalls a 2nd time viewing them from the opposite direction as we return upstream to our start point.
Optional: When we arrive at the South Falls Lodge, folks have the option of relaxing there and waiting to be picked up after the rest of the group completes the loop.
An Oregon State Parks annual or $5 daily pass is required for each car. Daily passes can be purchased on site; the group will share the expense. .
