Sightseeing

Our favorite local trail through an old-growth forest right along the Salmon River with branching trails down to the riverbed where you can relax or swim. May require a trail pass depending on where you park along the river. A small cliff where we've seen some rock climbers is further down the road at one end of the trail and has a parking turnout. Closed after sunset.

This is a great place to spend the day in a well-maintained forest park with paved trails, a large beach for river swimming, many picnic areas along the trails, a below-water-line fish viewing room, restrooms, and plentiful parking. There's also a walking bridge that takes you over the river and onto a series of boardwalks that go through wetlands. This is a day-use recreation area with a booth at the entrance to purchase day and annual passes. Closes at sunset.

Our closest waterfall, with the easiest to get to trailhead, is Little ZigZag falls. This trail is particularly wonderful on hot summer days as it stays cool in this small canyon. A gentle uphill trail, this is a non-strenuous, kid-friendly hike - only half a mile.
