After an easy 0.2 mile round trip to admire 20-foot Alsea Falls, we'll follow the main trail upstream, cross the South Fork Alsea River steel footbridge, head downstream past Alsea Falls for a mile, and then climb 0.8 miles to the pool below Green Peak Falls' 60-ft waterslide. Vegetation along the trail includes second-growth trees, sword ferns, vine maples, and oxalis. Moderate, 5.0 miles round trip, with cumulative 650 feet of elevation gain.
