Waterfall in the Rogue River Gorge

Built by the Conservation Corps in the 1930s, the Union Creek Historic District has the feeling of the classic California National Parks and is an excellent base to explore Crater Lake National Park. The Union Creek Resort offers rustic, affordable lodging and a small store for supplies; across the street, Beckie's Cafe (in operation since 1926) has some of the best pie you'll ever find. In the summer, an ice cream shop offers up cool treats. While it is quite busy in the summer, it's fairly easy to secure lodging here in the winter, making it the perfect place to stay if you are looking to explore Crater Lake in the snow.

In the early spring, the rushing waters of the Rogue River may obscure the features of Natural Bridge - where the waters briefly dip underground as they roar through a lava tube. The gate remains closed until early spring; you may have to hike in from the road if this is the case.

This natural bridge isn't like ones you may have seen elsewhere. Rather than being cut through the erosive action of the river, this "bridge" is actually an ancient lava tube that the river flows through for about 200 feet.

It is a steep path up to the Hobart Bluff, but it is worth the effort. There is a great view of the Soda Mountain Wilderness at the two viewing points.

Hobart Bluff is a prominent rock formation in southern Oregon. It offers a moderately challenging hike through forest and along meadows, that features stunning views of the Rogue Valley, Mount McLoughlin, and the surrounding Siskiyou Mountains.

These Giant Boulders in the Rogue River cause a nice little cascade and if you are in the area, you should certainly visit this spot to spend some time at the river and enjoy the views of the water flowing below the nearby bridge.

Mill Creek Falls is a stunning waterfall located in Prospect, that can be perfectly seen from this viewpoint. It's part of the Mill Creek Falls Scenic Area and is known for its impressive 173-foot drop. The falls are easily accessible via a short trail and offer a beautiful natural setting.
