If this be not love, it is madness, and then it is pardonable… -William Congreve

I first visited Oregon couple of years ago on a summer road trip along with my wife. We both enjoyed the state's natural beauty so much that we decided to head back up again this year when we had a chance. Last time we were there we spend a whole day searching for the illusive Abiqua falls but were unlucky in finding it. This time I was better prepared and had an idea about the approximate location of the trailhead. Plus we were lucky that we met some locals who directed us to the exact start point of the trail.
The trail is completely located within private property but the owners had allowed nature lovers to explore the area, which was totally awesome and I hope everyone to venture to this trail respect the instructions posted. You basically can drive up until you see a white metal fence blocking the road and the trail to the falls start to the left of the road. Once you start the hike, the trail immediately divides into three different paths and the left most one seems to be the shortest and the easiest. So that’s basically my tips for this hike, also make sure good hiking boots and some food as this hike is a bit hard without those.
