Twin Falls is a waterfall in Marion County, Oregon. It drops roughly 30 feet. Access details and conditions have not yet been verified in person by Fallspots — the data on this page comes from OpenStreetMap and USGS GNIS.
Twin Falls sits in Marion County, Oregon. The falls are inside Silver Falls State Park. The base sits at roughly 1,502 feet of elevation. Drive time is about 11 minutes from Lyons. A trail — Canyon Trail — runs within 40 meters of the marked location. It draws modest visitor attention — busier weekends, quiet weekdays. Source records come from OpenStreetMap and USGS GNIS.
Entry is free. Dogs on leash are welcome on the access trail. The approach is short and gentle enough for young kids.
Is the water flowing right now?
Most waterfall sites don't tell you this. The waterfall itself is almost never gauged, but a USGS streamgage in the same watershed can tell you whether snowmelt has started, peaked, or run dry.
