Little Niagara Falls, Cascade waterfall in Salmon-Huckleberry Wilderness, Oregon.
Little Niagara Falls flows through dense forests of Douglas fir and western hemlock at an elevation of 2,146 feet in Mount Hood National Forest.
The waterfall earned its name from early settlers who compared its rushing cascades to the larger Niagara Falls on the border of New York State.
The waterfall forms part of the traditional territories where Native American tribes conducted fishing activities along the Salmon River system.
Visitors reach the waterfall via a challenging 10-mile trail starting from Welches on U.S. Route 26, requiring proper hiking equipment and water supplies.
The waterfall stands among five other cascades within a one-mile radius, creating a concentrated collection of water features in Clackamas County.
