Great quick stop for beautiful falls and walk. Lots of parking and clean bathroom. Beautiful! Second tallest falls in Oregon. Worth the detour.
Kind of mystical with lush ferns, trees, and many rhododendrons everywhere. Nicely maintained walking path to the overlook.
This falls is beautiful! It is a short walk from the parking lot with paved and rocked trails. I got some beautiful pictures from the various viewpoints next to the falls.
When taking non-hikers out to see water falls, this is a great option since this is wheelchair accessible. The view is fabulous and worth the drive and if time allows, make sure to hike around. If leaving Eugene headed to the falls, make a stop at some of the covered bridges and pull over at the view points.
We stopped by the Salt Creek Falls on our way to Crater Lake from Portland. Well worth the short walk. Unlike most waterfalls, you approach this one from the top. You can hear the water on your approach, and then you start to see the falls below you. They did a nice job with the trail so you can see the falls well.
There is a $5 day fee here - but do support our parks! The view over the falls is amazing and a bit dizzying. Only takes about 15 min to see it all - unless you want to hike down to the bottom. Beautiful shallow river DIVES over the second highest fall in Oregon. Impressive!
A great stop on our road-trip. Nice short hike for our family to see the fall from lower elevation. Many great photo spots along the trail with the waterfall in the background.
The second tallest waterfall in Oregon, it says, and was glad we made the trip. After a week of much driving and site seeing, I was hoping the falls would be worth the side trip. We weren't disappointed and the drive there was scenic as well.
Just off the highway, wonderful falls that are a must see. If the weather is right, take the trail down towards the bottom for a different view.
Diamond falls is actually better in my opinion than Salt Creek falls...Diamond is a one mile hike from Salt Creek...unless you really like hiking uphill, do not continue to Fall Creek falls and Vivian lake...the trail does not go close enough to Fall Creek Falls.....Salt Creek is tall but does not have the rush of Koosah, the awe of Multnomah, or the beauty of Silver Falls
