1. PLACES / SHELLBURG FALLS
This trail starts off as a wide gravel path that will lead you through a cow pasture. It does not feel much like the wildreness but keep going, it will be worth it. The gravel road continues for less than a mile before entering the Santiam State Forest. At 1.2 miles, you’ll cross a short bridge over Shellburg Creek. To the left of the bridge are a few steps and a narrow trail that will lead you to the waterfall. Submitted by Kyla Phillips
