USA National Creek Falls

A highly photogenic waterfall in Oregon about a half hour drive east of Crater Lake. The falls occur where the spring fed creek diverges around a basalt outcropping and plunges about 40 feet over a jagged ledge in two scenic channels. The grotto below the falls is exceptionally scenic and thriving in greenery, with a small meadow of mosses growing on a flat area just downstream of the falls where Falls Creek merges with National Creek. The falls flow very consistently and are good to visit any time of the year.

From the junction of Highways 62 & 230 just north of Union Creek, drive north on Highway 230 for 6 miles.
Turn right on Forest Road 6530, which is signed for National Creek Falls. Follow the signs to the waterfall, remaining on Road 6530 for about 3.5 miles. Turn right to reach the parking lot a short distance from the road.
