On Crater Lake Rim Drive. An easy, quiet trail through an old-growth forest to the base of a waterfall surrounded by wildflowers. The path is dirt/gravel and doesn't have much elevation gain; slight incline just before reaching the falls. Parking lot is small (15-20 cars). Benches and educational signage along the way. To avoid crowds arrive before 11am. A NPS pass or park entrance fee is required.

Beautiful waterfall worth the moderately difficult uphill hike about 1-mile round trip. About 400 steps total with pathways in between. Some tree roots and rock obstructions result in uneven surfaces. Bring water and good hiking shoes. Benches along the way. Very small parking lot, so arrive before 10am to get a spot. Interesting huge redwood "pipeline" built in 1949 going through the parking lot sprays water out through leaks.

Just North of Klamath Falls (35 minutes). Known for its stunningly clear, aquamarine water (but very cold year-round!). Great kayaking! The water shades change from turquoise to jade green! Water bubbles up beneath the sandy creek bed from underground springs. This produces the clear, beautiful colors. Unique to the Creek is a type of algae called "mares stones" that look like round, smooth stones in the water. They only grow in very specific conditions, and the environment is perfect here. There is a small, outdoor logging museum that is fun; especially for kids (Collier Logging Museum). Restrooms and drinking water available. Nice picnic tables by the Creek and large grassy area to relax on.

Unique cave exploring at the Lava Beds Natl Monument. Tours available through the caves. Be sure to fuel up before heading here as its in a remote area and not close to gas stations. Bring along a flashlight/headlamp, long sleeve shirt, pants, gloves, sturdy shores, and maybe a bike helmet if you plan on serious cave exploring. Bring along water as there are very few amenities in the area. The caves can be chilly so bring a jacket. Great history here as native american known as "Captain Jack" held off the U.S. Calvary from the cave area. Japanese-American internment camps were located here in WWII.

This is a rehab for injured animals located just up the street from our home. Very interesting to see the big Eagles and other wildlife captured getting the new care they need. From our driveway take a ride up to McLaughlin to the stop sign. Make another right and it’s the first street on the right. Habitat will be on the left corner.

Looking for adventure this is the one! Longest, hand brake zip line in Oregon. Swing through the trees while taking in the view. Fly high through the canopy on 9 ziplines at heights of up to 100 feet. Traverse two skybridges and conquer two controlled rappels! Crater Lake ZipLine participants zip from tree to tree with two trained (plus friendly and entertaining!) guides. Highway 140 will also take you to Lake of the Woods or the back way to our house on Clover Creek. This makes one big loop.
