Description
The Rim Trail may not be as heavily laden with waterfalls as the Canyon Trail, but is still wonderful to hike. The trail starts from Parking Lot A and heads east. After about 4 miles it crosses the bike bath and the parallels it as it turns north. Shortly after diverting from the bike path it reaches Winter Falls. The trail continues east paralleling the North Fork Silver Creek and Oregon Highway-214. The trail crosses the highway and ends at Upper North Falls.
