This out of the way trail is popular for a reason – it’s got a beautiful forest, spectacular waterfall, and a fun suspension bridge. The trail leads through the woods to Drift Creek, a proposed Wild & Scenic River, where it tumbles over a cliff. We’ll explore this beautiful area and learn more about the management of the Siuslaw National Forest and the opportunity to protect this important salmon stream.
The goal of Oregon Wild’s outdoor program is to connect our supporters to the places we work to protect and conserve. Our guided hikes and outings are led by staff members with experience in our conservation campaigns, knowledge about the natural world, and a passion for Oregon’s wild places and wildlife. Our programs offer an educational experience and a connection to advocacy for the places we visit. We strive to make our outdoor programs inviting and safe for everyone.
