BITE-SIZED WILDS | SPECTACULAR McKenzie River! | National Wild & Scenic River | Central Oregon | 4K
This was a day-hike in Central Oregon, Willamette National Forest, starting at world class legendary Koosah & Sahalie Falls Trailhead and hiking a 2.9 Mile Loop crossing two bridges and hiking both sides of National Wild & Scenic McKenzie River completely circumnavigating the area with multiple vantage points of BOTH Waterfalls with only 360 FT Elevation Gain, making it a low Elevation Gain, well-graded trail. The temperature was in the 40's for most of the hike with VERY heavy rain and dark gloomy overcast sky, which frankly only added to the beauty. This was hiked on 4/8/2022 and there were of course NO Mosquitoes. As far as road conditions, it's highway to the paved parking lot so it is as easy as it gets - In my opinion, the road most definitely DOES NOT require 4-Wheel Drive, however do watch for road conditions, particularly snow/ice depending on the time of year. On this day it was raining so heavily I had full windshield wipers going through heavy rain & fog in the morning so conditions are always unpredictable and a factor.
I highly recommending taking a stacking 3-Pack-Hike approach and combining this hike with Tamolitch Blue Pool, 4 miles, that is only a few minutes away down the highway, as well as if feeling truly ambitious even Clear Lake Loop, 4.9 miles, as well, making it a full day in the area of EPIC hiking - that would be the ultimate one stop shopping approach - these three hikes are the highlights of the entire area! If you do all three, start very early in the day to give yourself time to complete them all at a comfortable, leisurely pace. If you decide to pick off multiple hikes in one trip, whether you do two of the hikes or all three, make sure to hydrate/snack as necessary in the car rides between the locations Trailheads as your own little pit stops.
