Confirmed from Silver Falls State Park - North Falls Lodge's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
State park offering picnic tables and kid-friendly hiking.
What runners say about Silver Falls State Park - North Falls Lodge
“The parking lot was empty and the air was crisp and clean.”
“No better place to take your dogs on a nice, beautiful stroll.”
Amazing 5 days. Clean campground and bathrooms. Nice showers. We had critters at night.... Raccoons and skunks only. So do your cooking and clean up well before sundown. Hiking was beautiful and paths were navigable. Take your time and enjoy!
I absolutely love this place.Whenever I have alot on my mind,I hike here to unwind.
Very vigorous, have a much larger space behind compared to the south fall. A quick 20 minute walk from the north parking lot. Very slippery... And wet!
Seriously one of the most beautiful hikes I've been on. Oregon park rangers do a great job at keeping the area maintained
