Final Falls

Final Falls is a waterfall on the Salmon River at the southern edge of Oregon’s Mount Hood National Forest in the Salmon–Huckleberry Wilderness. It stands within an unusually dense cluster of nearby waterfalls, with several others located within one to two miles. Reached by a roughly seven-mile hike from near Welches along U.S. Route 26, the route follows the Salmon River south through dense forest of Douglas fir, western hemlock, red cedar, bigleaf maple, red alder, and black cottonwood. Final Falls is the last waterfall upstream beyond Vanishing Falls and Frustration Falls, and there is no direct trail access to it.
