| DIRECTIONS - Drive
up Cascade River Road for about a half a mile and turn right onto Rockport-Cascade
Road. In around a mile the road crosses over Jordan Creek. Park at the turnout
just before the creek and head up the gated logging road on the left side of the
road. About 4 miles into the hike you will get your first view of the falls.
There are 4 forks along the way: right, right, left, left. The final fork
heads up a fairly brushy old logging road. When it ends, head steeply up the hill
into the woods (try to avoid the boulder field if you can). In a couple hundred feet
you'll come out of the trees at the base of the falls. NEARBY WATERFALLS - Falls Lake Falls |

Jordan Creek Falls is
the best waterfall I've ever seen. Not only is it around 600' tall, it's almost
100' wide at the bottom and the amount of water coming down is massive. No matter
how impressive the pictures may be, they don't come anywhere close to showing this
falls. If you possibly can, make the difficult journey into the falls.
