McDowell Creek Falls County Park is delightful in any season. Guided by one of the Linn County Park rangers, we’ll hike the 1.6-mile trail loop, passing several waterfalls on the way. We’ll have our whisper devices so you’ll get a guided tour in your ear from the ranger as you hike along.
The park is about 13 miles and a 20-minute drive from Walmart in Lebanon and is one of our favorite events every year. Watch this video and then come to enjoy why we live in Western Oregon!
