Abiqua Falls Day Hike — Oregon

Abiqua Falls Day Hike — Oregon

As soon as I saw a picture of Abiqua falls, it was on the top of my list of falls to visit when I came to Oregon. It's such a unique waterfall, framed perfectly by the geometric basalt rock. I love that since the trailhead is a little out of the way and harder to get to than other falls, there are a lot less crowds, and the hike is relatively short for the payoff.
