🚫 No Cell Signal ❄️ Snowy conditions possible

Tumalo Falls is a breathtaking 97-foot waterfall nestled in the Deschutes National Forest, just a short drive from downtown Bend. This iconic destination is a must for outdoor enthusiasts and photographers alike. A quick, easy hike from the parking lot leads you to a stunning viewpoint, but adventurers can continue on the trail to explore lush forests and smaller cascades upstream.

The best time to visit is late spring through early summer when the snowmelt swells the falls, or in autumn when golden hues surround the trail. Winter brings a serene, snowy charm, but check for road closures and pack snowshoes for added adventure.

Whether you’re seeking a peaceful picnic spot or a jumping-off point for a longer hike, Tumalo Falls offers unparalleled views and the true essence of Central Oregon’s natural beauty. Don’t forget your camera!
