10.1 miles of hiking • 1500' elevation gain •

A coworker that is in the Mazamas recommended we try this trail, and it's a gem! What can I say is good about this trail....Everything! What can I say bad about this trail...It's crowded, but the people were dispersed along its length. This trail ranks up there with the finest hikes we've ever had the privilege to experience!

Falls Creek presents you with a huge number of spectacular waterfalls! I started to get tired pulling out my camera and would have just preferred taking movies of the entire hike using a helmet cam. It was a cloudy day with the threat of thunderstorms, but only occasional raindrops fell. The temperature at this elevation probably stayed in the 70's which was quite different than the 90 degree temps back in Bend. As we got closer to the Green Lakes we broke out into flowered meadows and huge lava fields. The views of Broken Top and South Sister on either side of the Green Lakes was so beautiful I could only stand there with my mouth open and soak in the perfection...while constantly taking pictures!

A PERFECT hike and a must to put on the bucket list!
