Wolf Creek Falls Trail

Late-winter view of Wolf Creek along the Wolf Creek Falls Trail, Feb. 28, 2020, by Greg Shine, BLM.

Nestled among the big trees in an old growth forest, this 1.2-mile trail leads to a cascading two-tier waterfall that plummets 75 feet into an aquamarine pool. Open year-round, the trail to the waterfalls follows the clear waters of Wolf Creek under the shaded canopy of tall timber.

During the rainy seasons of winter and early spring, the massive upper Wolf Creek Falls puts on a display of strength and power. Spring brings on lush vegetation and vibrant colors for photographers. The reduced water flows in the summer months reveal the complex channels and pathways the water has carved into the bedrock cliffs underneath Wolf Creek Falls.

Know Before You Go:
•The trailhead provides ample parking and a vault toilet and picnic table across the road from the trailhead.
•A single picnic site is located on the trail approximately one-half mile from the trailhead.
•Please stay on the trail to avoid starting new trails.
•Trail is open year-round.

Directions: The trailhead is located 10.7 miles up Little River Road (County Road 17), which starts from Highway 138 in Glide. Glide is approximately 17 miles east of Roseburg, Oregon.

Point of Interest: The Umpqua National Forest manages several other waterfalls in the vicinity of Little River including Grotto, Hemlock, Yakso, and Shadow Falls. For additional information on locations and details on local regional waterfalls, obtain a copy of the BLM and U.S. Forest Service Thundering Waters guide.
