Oregon’s state parks are wonderful places to reconnect with nature and make memories that will last a lifetime. The crown jewel of the park system is Silver Falls State Park, and it’s a favorite with Oregonians and their out-of-town guests.

The park’s Trail of 10 Falls is particularly popular, and rightly so – it’s absolutely breathtaking. If you can’t get to the park to hike it, this virtual hike is the next best thing.

Silver Falls State Park is Oregon's largest state park, and certainly one of its most beautiful. Covering more than 9,000 acres, it includes a campground, day-use area, lodge, and several trails.
