Benham Falls Access
Benham Falls Access provides two day-use trailheads (East and West) offering access to the Deschutes River Trail and views of Benham Falls, a 25-foot cascade formed by ancient lava flows.
The East Day Use Area features a boat launch for upstream river travel, picnic tables, restrooms, and parking (arrive by 9 a. m. on summer weekends for guaranteed spots), while the West trailhead offers a shorter 50-yard walk to a viewing platform.
A $5 daily recreation pass or annual pass is required; dogs must be leashed year-round at trailheads and May 15-September 15 on trails.
