South Falls — Local services in Stayton

An absolutely beautiful fall. There is a walkway around and behind the fall. I waited in July and locals told.me that the water from the fall is less as compared to other months. There is ample parking spaces available and two restrooms as well. The cafe and the sovenior shop are also open now. The hike around the fall is around half mile. But it is bit steep and can be a bit challenging for kids and senior people. People who do not want to go down can also look at the waterfall from viewpoints from the top. For some cell phone carriers there is no signal. So make sure you download the map before you go. There are few benches and grills where you can barbeque. Little stream also runs just beside the parking. The drive near the fall is also very scenic. A very nice get away...

We can see the falls in almost every direction and explore it by walking around it. We can spend a nice hour or two here. Also we can hike to the north falls, from this point, which would roughly take around 1.5-2 hours(one way) if you are medium paced. The hike through the forest...

South Falls is a grand waterfall along South Silver Creek with a path behind it with basalt caves and a bridge at its base. On high water days mist fills the air and moistens hikers whom walk behind the waterfall. Lovely views all around. The base used to be a fun swimming area but they have closed it off now. This area is very popular as it is near the lodge, store, picnic areas, swimming area, and campground...
