Twin Falls

Twin Falls is yet another one of those unimaginatively-named waterfalls in Silver Falls State Park. This one is short (probably 20-25ft or less), but it's split in the middle by a rock which is how we suspect the falls got its name. There's a railing along the rim of its hard-rock layer supporting this waterfall, but the view from here isn't very good. Perhaps the most interesting views are along the Trail of Ten Falls between the Winter Falls junction and this waterfall (roughly 0.3 miles to the east; but you don't go all the way to the railings). Unfortunately, you do have to contend with lots of foliage with this view.

Overall, we hiked about 0.5 miles from the Winter Falls car park, crossed the bridge, and then turned right and walked another 0.3 miles before we finally saw this waterfall.

Directions: The way we visited this falls was from the Winter Falls car park. See that page for driving directions to the trailhead.
