Silver Falls State Park in Oregon

Rating: You Should Go

Silver Falls State Park is great for people who like to take leisurely hikes around cascading waterfalls, or just sit on shaded benches overlooking cascading waterfalls.  It costs $5 per vehicle to get into the park (make sure to have exact change when you go because there was just a machine when we went).  We had a picnic lunch on a bench along one of the hiking paths then walked the paved path to the South Falls.  It's an easy walk down but a little harder getting up.  There are large grassy areas with benches and flowing streams that are also good for having lunch, playing games, or just lounging.  There are also more challenging hiking trails for those who are a bit more in shape.
