Top 10 Waterfalls in Oregon (from a local) - 4K Travel Guide

Oregon waterfalls were the theme of what to visit and where to travel to in Oregon this year, and it. was. epic. We traveled all across Oregon, and spent 10 weekends, 2000+ miles driven to create the best waterfall guide of Oregon that the internet has ever seen... at least that was the hope lol ;)
I grew up on The Oregon Coast north of Cannon Beach and south of Astoria in one of the best beach towns of Seaside, Oregon. I will travel to Oregon for the rest of my life, and I know I will experience new things every time. This 4K travel guide is an overview of my top 10 Waterfalls that are worth visiting in Oregon, so make some notes, and get out there and enjoy!

I watched this video back when you released it, but I’m finally commenting - it was fun to meet you at Koosah Falls this last October! As a couple of Arizonans, my wife and I were blown away by the 10+ waterfalls we visited during our Bend trip. Thanks for telling me about your channel that morning in October - I’ve really enjoyed your content! Absolutely top tier stuff. Keep it up!

[@JacksonMeyer]

Ayyyyy, thankyou so much, that is awesome! It was nice to meet you as well - glad you experienced so much while you were out here, good work! And thanks for the encouragement, I'll continue attempting to make fun travel content, thanks for following, I really appreciate it.

[@nathanjs55]

@@JacksonMeyer You rock!

[@eddied1817]

in my list for my next trip to OREGON, last year I went only Multnomah and Abiqua fall 👍

[@JacksonMeyer]

Hey, those are two really good ones! Hope this list was helpful!

[@OFFGRID_Trucker]

There's a long trail that goes all the way to the top of Multnomah.

[@eddied1817]

@@OFFGRID_Trucker yes, I did it, all way to the top and back to the others waterfalls.

[@RyanShirley]

Great video brother! You’re the king of oregon waterfalls! 🤴🏼

[@JacksonMeyer]

I appreciate the support, Ryan! Haha I certainly am trying, thanks for the blue pool footage 🤙

[@jennyc5100]

Thanks, Jackson. I especially appreciated your comments about how rough or easy it is to get to the falls.

[@JacksonMeyer]

Anytime ;) And thank you for watching my videos, I really really appreciate it!

[@joannewinters9616]

Awesome thank you for sharing all this it's beautiful

[@JacksonMeyer]

You are so welcome, thank you for watching and commenting, I really appreciate it!

[@jessicamaury8888]

Wow, i really enjoyed watching those beautiful waterfalls. I like the way u film them. Thanks for the tips. Now I have some new waterfalls for us to hike to that I didn't know about. I appreciate all your info.

[@JacksonMeyer]

Glad you liked the video, I really appreciate the comment.... I have no idea what i'm doing so that honestly is really encouraging. I have another video coming soon of the top 8 Waterfall hikes near Portland if that is interesting to you! Thanks again

[@jessicamaury8888]

Yeah i look forward to it. We need weekend things to do that are new. I like your honesty, lol. You definitly have a knack for this!

[@MrBones292]

always the best from Jackson. Thank you brother!

[@JacksonMeyer]

Nolan!! So good to hear from you bro, thanks for watching and commenting I appreciate it my man 👍

[@Cirystail24]

Beautiful!!!

[@JacksonMeyer]

Thanks for the comment and for you subscribing ;) I really reall appreciate it!

[@luzmariagomez359]

Thank you for being so helpful. Wow even mapped them out. Super cool especially because we traveled so far. Unfortunatley one thing i should have researched myself was no dogs on many of these trails. We took paved trails or off shoots but will definitely have to come back again in the spring and summer

[@JacksonMeyer]

Thankyou so much for the kind words, and shoot! I should have noted that, I don't have any pets so it didn't even cross my mind, sorry!

[@VisitOregon]

Great video!

[@JacksonMeyer]

Thanks! I appreciate it!

[@hudsonkang6705]

Thx for sharing the video! I am planning to go to Tumalo falls and I can't find any way to get to the bottom of the waterfalls on the internet. Could you please share how you reached the bottom of waterfalls? not top?

[@JacksonMeyer]

You might see people scrambling down from the top, like above the waterfall, but that is officially closed. the proper way to get to the bottom requires a bit more discovery, and I'll give just a hint: bridge.

[@hudsonkang6705]

@@JacksonMeyer much appreciated!

[@nwcanyoning7514]

I hate to be that guy but drones in the wilderness are a no go. Ramona and Marion are both in wilderness by miles. Tumalo is signed to stay on the trail which means walking behind it is off limits. Also, Multnomah is a no drone zone. Quality video but some leave no trace ethics would be nice in future videos.

[@JacksonMeyer]

First off, I appreciate your comment, your professionalism, and your LNT mentality, because I tend to be a stickler in this realm as well: I just saw some drone video in Silver Falls on IG and commented pretty much your same sentiment on that post. And while I'm aligned with you on LNT, I know that I let my intrusive thoughts occasionally win (it's true) so there is certainly room for improvement on my end. Also, I'd like to respond: 1. Tumalo, I took the pretty obvious trail by the bridge and walked upstream and I didn't see any sign indicating that was off-limits to walk up the river (Removed all footage that encourages going down there) 2. I am extremely aware that Multnomah and the whole Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area/Mark Hatfield/Eagle Creek etc is a no drone zone that's why I didn't fly in Tunnel/Wahclella/Ecola, etc - and when filming Multnomah, I launched from outside the zone (i.e the river) and stayed outside the zone over the river the duration of the flight while filming Multnomah. 3. I have learned something new, I didn't know that drones are prohibited in Oregon Wilderness. Shoot. Good to know, and I suppose one more thing to check before launching! Thank you! -Jackson

[@sleepy421a3]

Hi! How long would it take to visit all these waterfalls?

[@JacksonMeyer]

That is a crazy question because they are all over Oregon! If you made a perfect route and optimized it… it might take you 5 days to see them all? Romona & tamanawas is a day, tunnel falls is a day, Tumalo, white river falls & Marion is a big day. Salt creek, Abiqua & tokatee falls is a big day and then Multnomah + others is a good day.

[@sleepy421a3]

Got it, thanks 🫡

[@OFFGRID_Trucker]

Good stuff.. I know there are a couple more you didn't mention. National Creek falls and Mill Creek falls which include Barr Creek falls as well. I live less than 10 minutes from the Mill creek falls. My drone had some issues that day and I was new to flying this DJI AIR. kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4TGoZdoiM5nm68si=Mw84VJA8FPgUijvW Oh.. when you first see the waterfall.. That IS my DJI Phantom 3 Pro sitting on the wall. Unretrievable. Got too close at the top of the falls and ran into a small branch on the right side of the fall. oops..

[@JacksonMeyer]

Yeah there are like close to 300 named waterfalls in Oregon Plus a whole lot of undiscovered or unnamed, but this is what I believe the top 10 are... and No way, just watched that video. That sucks! haha brutal.
