Cavitt Creek Falls is a beautiful waterfall in Oregon, USA. It's found on the western edge of the Umpqua National Forest. This amazing spot is near the town of Glide, in Douglas County. The waterfall is a main attraction at the Cavitt Creek Falls Recreation Site.

Discover Cavitt Creek Falls

Cavitt Creek Falls is a special place where water tumbles down. The waterfall is 8 feet tall. It flows in one big cascade. The water then splashes into a large swimming area. This makes it a perfect spot for cooling off!

How the Falls Work

Big rocks sit across Cavitt Creek. These rocks split the water into two paths. This creates two channels for the water to flow. Together, these channels make the waterfall about 15 feet wide. It's a cool sight to see the water split and then come together again.

Where is it?

You can find Cavitt Creek Falls along Little River Road. It's about 7 miles from Highway 138. The waterfall is surrounded by a peaceful forest. This makes it a great place to visit nature.

Fun Activities!

Besides swimming, you can also go fishing here. The river is open for trout fishing. But remember, you can only use artificial flies and lures. This helps protect the fish and the river. It's a fun way to spend time outdoors.
