About this spot

From Eugene, take Coburg Rd north and turn right onto E 4th Ave. Continue through Shelton Mcmurphey Blvd and W 3rd Ave, then turn right on Washington St. Turn left onto W 1st Ave, continuing onto Railroad Blvd. Follow Clear Lake Rd to OR-36 W and Northwest Expy. Turn left on Irving Rd, then continue on Clear Lake Rd and Lawrence Rd. Turn left onto OR-36 W toward Blachly, OR 97412. The location will be on your left. A parking area sits on the right side with trail access across the street leading to rock slides. At the recreation area entrance, a small waterfall feeds into a swimming pool where cliff jumping occurs directly opposite the creek. Two jumping platforms stand at 25 and 35 feet high with ropes available. The water depth is substantial, though swimmers should exercise caution. Downstream from the waterfall lies a natural rock slide spanning approximately 100 feet with a gradual descent, terminating in a shallow warm pool below. The slides accommodate floats, bare skin, or standing attempts, though sliding on your body may result in scrapes. This location welcomes families, though adults should supervise children carefully around the water slide areas.

Safety first. Cliff jumping is inherently dangerous and can cause serious injury or death. Conditions — water depth, submerged hazards, and access — change constantly. CliffScout is community-sourced reference information, not a guarantee a spot is safe. Always assess the conditions yourself before jumping, and never jump where you're unsure. You assume all risk.
