Trail of the Ten Falls — Silver Falls State Park

Located within Silver Falls State Park, this trail passes by 10 beautiful falls. This is a great natural feature close to population centers, easily accessible and with a large variety of hiking options to suit multiple skill levels.

Volunteers inspired by the beauty and history of Silver Falls have been active there since establishment of the park in 1933. In 1986, the citizens and the park staff envisioned a mission and established the Friends of Silver Falls State Park, Inc. As a result, this private and public partnership has created a more meaningful park experience for the nearly 1 million annual visitors to the park.

Since 1992, volunteers of the Friends of Silver Falls State Park have operated the Nature Store in historic South Falls Lodge. This store offers a variety of books, clothing and souvenirs in keeping with the park’s nature theme. The organization has also been responsible for much of the interpretive signage along the Trail of Ten Falls. The Silver Falls State Park Concession Building Area and the Silver Creek Youth Camp-Silver Falls State Park are separately listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.
