- Sorry TLC, we are chasing some waterfalls! 10 to be exact! 😜 In this video we head to Silver Falls State Park, which is located about 30 minutes east of Salem, Oregon. This park is said to be the crown jewel of Oregon State Parks and is home to the Trail of Ten Falls (in 8 miles or so), which in our opinion is the ULTIMATE waterfall hike in Oregon!

This is the best freaking channel on youtube!! I found u guys a few days ago and this video inspired me so much. I am a landscape photographer in CA myself and have been to several spots in your videos. My 50th bday is coming up in July and this video has got me thinking I need to go travel through Oregon for the occasion
You should go for it!
You should go and Vlog it so we can all watch it. 😀
Thank you! ❤️ We’re glad you found us!
We hope you get to go and you have a fantastic time and birthday!
You only live once!
Always a good day when there is a new A+K video!!
❤️💙
Love Silver Falls! Great videos guys! Can’t wait to see where you go next!
❤️💙
Never get tired of this hike. Just went about 2 weeks ago on another rainy day. Thankful that we only have a 50 minute drive and can take a weekday off for a crowd free experience. Thank you for this video!
We may have just missed you there then! It is a great rainy day hike and also perfect for weekdays!
I was so glad to see you were able to visit Silver Falls! It's such a gem. So funny story, when I was pregnant with boy #3 we lived outside of Salem, and I was set to deliver in Corvallis. When I was 6 days over due we went to SF and hiked South Falls. I ended up going in labor the very next day and delivering him in under 2 hours. He was my quickest baby at 7 days overdue, the older 2 were both 10 days and #4 topped out at 15 days overdue. However, my Dr did not find it funny at all. I thought I was walking that baby out, but she was horrified. She asked me what I would have done if I'd gone into labor on the hike. I said that was what park rangers were for, right?!!! haha, she was not amused. I still think it was that super big hill that did it for me, and the parking garage stairs here in Texas just didn't work as well for #4 :) Glad you got the window but bummer on the windshield!!!
Oh wow! Those are some wild stories! We’re glad it all worked out! Thanks for watching!
So so glad that you enjoyed silver falls. It’s one our family’s favorites. Thank you for representing Oregon so well. It’s so awesome to see you guys in my state!
We love Oregon and are so happy we could share it!
Been there decades ago, still remember the ten falls as the most spectacular, breathtaking sights in Oregon. Physical limitations prevent me from returning. I thank you very much for going and recording so I can see it once more. Wet, yes, I remember wet!
We’re glad we could share and you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching! ❤️
We did that hike a few years ago and I still think that is one of the best hikes I have ever done.
Us too!
Same!
So much fun watching all 3 Oregon videos in one day! Fantastic!!
👍 thanks for watching!
We're heading to the Pacific NW for the first time this year, can't wait to see all this. Your videos are getting us prepared!
We're glad we could help! We hope you have a great trip!
amazing dance moves you got there! Keep them coming 😄
That's an awesome waterfalls, but my favorite part was with Kona. So adorable as always!
We wish we could’ve brought Kona Bear on this one, but glad we could include her in some way ☺️
We love hiking to waterfalls; never have I seen a hike like this one!! Definitely checking it out some day! Congrats on the 100K!!!! Y’all have worked so hard & it’s super exciting to see others realized what a gem y’all are!!!🎉
It’s an amazing hike! Thank you so much! 🥳🎉
Ricketts Glen in Pennsylvania has over 22 waterfalls! It's a must.
We’ve learned of it from some previous comments. We’ll have to check it out on our next visit! Thanks! 👍
I'm getting so many travel ideas from you guys! This hike was amazing!!
Grew up in the Oregon Cascades and would drive to Silver Falls every summer for our family picnic. We would “swim” in the creek, play behind the water falls, and spend the day eating and enjoying our natural playground. What a joy to see this through your eyes. Thumbs up from your Oregon buddy. 😊 Sugar Pine is one of my favorite places - so glad you tried their ice cream - made my mouth water.
That’s a sweet spot for a family tradition! What a perfect day you described! Sugarpine is 👍👍👍
Great video. Looks like an amazing place. So much water, greenery and life.
I just love beautiful waterfall hikes !! I kept saying WOW!! 😁😍
Us too!
Thank you for highlighting OR’s beauty! And bounty of delicious food 😋 I was born in OR and lived there 15yrs. Now 22yrs later I still consider Oregon my home, and always will. ❤️LOL I’m thankful for the elves, too 👍😊
❤️💙
What a great find, A&K! I have not heard of this one but it's on my bucket list!
It’s a bucket lister for sure!
Thank you for being so awesome! Keep up the great work!
❤️💙
Another great adventure. Man I love Oregon. All those waterfalls is so amazing. Thank you for another great adventure. ✌
Thanks and thanks for watching! ❤️
What a beautiful hike! So many waterfalls and so much beauty. I was amazed at the moss and greenery everywhere. Have fun y’all. Thanks for the video! 👏
It was very lush and an amazing hike!
You know what I like!!! Brad loves him some waterfalls!!! I about couldn’t contain myself when I saw this beauty drop! How awesome is that park with all of those gorgeous waterfalls!!!! Wow, I could spend a week there! Side note, the way you describe your food makes me smile every time. 😁
Brad, you’re the best! You’re comments always make us smile! Those waterfalls were gorgeous, huh?! We love us some waterfalls too!
I did this hike about 20 years ago and I was dumbfounded by there being so many waterfalls and such a wide variety within one loop! Thanks for sharing another fabulous adventure and congrats on 100K!
❤️💙
I love everyone of your video's! Oregon is so beautiful.
Thank you! ❤️☺️
I've been watching your videos for the past year, and I just want to say that I absolutely love them all! You guys are so refreshingly authentic compared to a lot of other travel youtubers that might put clickbait-y titles for their videos or focus on big travel stuff. I enjoy seeing how you really emphasize the nature around you, and also highlight the lesser-known attractions like state parks or wilderness trails that are just as beautiful as the big-name places like national parks. I 100% live vicariously through your travels so keep up the great content :)
Thank you so much, Derek! That means a lot to us! We do like to emphasize the beauty around us and our experience at off the beaten path places that we truly enjoy. Thanks again! ❤️
I went to Silver Falls for the first time in Salem, Oregon yesterday. My dad been there in 1980.
Thanks for the video. and Congratulations on your 10K subs. Glad to be one of them. Loved all the waterfalls in the video. Thanks.
Thank you and thanks for following along! ❤️
Awesome work!! What a fantastic adventure. excellent video and editing work.
We were able to see it so relaxed. Thank you for giving us a wonderful experience😉
We’re glad we could share! Thanks for watching! ❤️💙☺️
Its been 3 months since I've watched your videos....😢my husband and i use to grab our coffees in the weekend and watch your videos. My husband passed away on Jan 3rd and i just haven't been able to watch any of our shows till today. We both went to Oregon a couple of times and im going in May with family in his memory....thank you for all the beauty you guys share with us all. ❤️
We’re so sorry for your loss! We’re glad we are able to share some beauty and we hope you and your family have a wonderful time in Oregon
EXCELLENT video!! Your channel just gets better and better. You gave me a great idea… I will be going to Oregon in a few weeks and I can’t wait to do this trail
We hope you enjoy it as much as we did! And thank you so much for saying that Javier! That means a lot to us
Another incredible trail that you guys have found!! My family would love all those waterfalls. So magical!!
It’s a great family hike!
I live in Silverton and we have been fans of Silver Falls State Park for as long as I can remember. We used this trail as our "gear test" in preparation for a section hike of the PCT (rain and sun).. Hiking, biking, camping, yurts, cabins and fantastic meeting halls - not to mention the lodge and the staff. Truly a gem.
Oooo yes that park is a good test run! The lodge looked really neat to stay in as well!
What a fun hike. It's great to have waypoints to look forward to.
Congrats on 100k subs!
Thank you!
Lol what a way to end it! Love your editing guys! I definitely have Silver Falls State Park added to my Oregon Road Trip Itinerary. I had never heard of it and it was gorgeous! Thanks for the great video!
Oh yes it’s a must visit if you’re anywhere close! Thanks! ❤️❤️
Magnificent waterfalls! I can imagine big bears hiding in the caves behind the waterfall. Beautiful photography ☺️. Great fun. 🌻🌿🐕🇺🇸
That would’ve been a fun, but scary surprise! Thanks, Guadalupe!
Perfect timing with all the rain we have received lately.
Thanks for this I’m super excited to visit this
That was a great video of some gorgeous falls! Thanks for getting drenched to show us such a beautiful hike (I love to see moss on hikes…it makes it look like a scene from a fairytale)! Oh did your lunch look so yummy! That chunky ice cream was over the top delicious looking! Thanks for including Konie too❣️ Looking forward to your surprise video! Keep traveling safe!
The waterfalls were super gorgeous! We'll power through a soaking to capture these waterfalls! The lunch was spectacular...especially the ice cream! Konie Bear says hello!
Can’t wait to do this hike! Also the Shasta bike trip! You guys are great!
It’s an amazing spot! Thank you!
The falls are all still wonderful in the summer (assuming no drought). Great Hike! I did this one on my second visit to Oregon in 2019. It's SO worth a detour and the Oregon Gardens are also close. Formal Congrats on 100K! I'm off to Utah for some much needed post-Covid slot canyons.
I bet it’s awesome year round! Thank you and we hope you a great time out there. Safe travels!
Beautiful park. Amazing waterfalls, and yummy 😋 food. Oregon looks great.😲👍😊🇮🇪🇺🇲
Oregon is super great! 😍
I love how you do a variety of hike lengths and difficulty levels--shows awesome hikes that different people can enjoy!
We like that as well! We like to show a variety! Thanks for watching! ❤️❤️
Did that hike a couple of years ago and can't wait to go back. Amazing scenery.
Yes indeed! Thanks for watching!
I am planning a road trip to Oregon this April and I'm super excited about this hike. Thank you so much for the inspiration! Much love from the Canadian Rockies ❤️
That's awesome! We hope you have a great trip! If you need more info on this hike and other things to do in the state we have guides on our website that may help. We highly recommend Bend, OR and an Oregon coast road trip!

Thank you for watching!
Beautiful, I love waterfalls. It is so amazing that you can walk behind them. The waterfalls on the trail are so amazing. Nature is so interesting and the way they were made for us all to enjoy is so amazing. The last one was beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing. I am really enjoying your trip.
Waterfalls you can walk behind are the best! Thanks for watching!
One of my favorite local places to hike! You picked a great time for the full falls. Cheers!
❤️💙
Hi, I recently subscribed and am so glad I did. You two make the closest I have ever seen to the perfect travel video. It has interesting facts, excellent photography, hiking, a dog ( although could be more dog as I like dogs) , food, beautiful locations and great commentary. I've probably missed some things but you get the idea. Very well done! Safe travels.
We’re glad you found us too! Thank you for saying all that! We’d love to incorporate our dog more as well, but she can be very difficult and makes all the other things you complimented much harder to do. But we really appreciate you being here and your compliments! ❤️💙
Those are some beautiful waterfalls! Man, you are giving me some good ideas to film content for my upcoming travel plans this summer!
We hope you can go and enjoy it! ❤️💙
You guys do a great job, really enjoyed your video!
Thanks, Richard!
So beautiful!! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Great video. Do this hike every year and it never get old.
Absolutely Breathtaking...
Wow! What a beautiful hike!
Such a beautiful hike. We love your energy and excitement with each new adventure and with the food and ice cream. We have to say you inspired us yesterday when we stopped at two different gelato places not even a block apart here in Florence, just had to do a comparison. Thanks for sharing and having fun.
It’s hard work but somebody’s gotta keep those gelato shops busy! Thanks for doing the dirty work, Bob!
never heard of those falls! really spectacular 👌
Just want you guys to know that this video inspired my husband and I to do a bonsai run to Silver Falls (from Phoenix OR) and hike the Trail of Ten Falls Loop. It was amazing!!! Thank you so much for making this video - we may have never done it otherwise. The day we hiked it was sunny and warm (it happened to be in between the rain fronts that have been blasting southern oregon lately) which made it even more amazing. We love all the information you give in your videos and are always inspired to get out of our comfort zone to explore something new. Keep up the good work!
Wow! How cool! We love hearing stories like this! Thank you so much and thanks for watching! ❤️
@@AdventuresofAplusK To put it in perspective -- I am 65 and my husband is 74 so when we say you inspired us, you really did!
Beautiful hike!!
Congrats on 100k....💯
Thank you! ❤️
Great video of an amazing place. Good luck with the window install.
Thank you! It all went well and we’ll share in an upcoming video 👍
Another great episode. Thanks
I love Waterfalls!!!...th first 2 r amazing...
Beautiful!
i’m going to this trail in september and i cannot be more excited! watching this video made me more excited for my oregon trip
That's awesome! We hope you have a great time! If you need more info about planning your trip we have a guide on our website for this trail that goes into much more detail than we can in a video. Thanks for watching!
It looks so beautiful!
Hello Adventurers😊😊😊, I absolutely LOVED all those waterfalls and hiking underneath lots of waterfalls was absolutely AMAZING! It also seemed like you were in a temperate rain forest with so much lush vegetation. The ice cream looked really good. As usual, this video was OUTSTANDING👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍!
We had a blast! Thanks, Al!
Your videos keep getting better and better!
Thank you! ❤️
My most favorite thing in nature are WATERFALLS! Thank you both soo for this beautiful video
We loooove waterfalls also! Thank you and thanks for watching!
Spectacular falls hike 💦
My husband and I will be doing this hike later this month. This video was perfect. I literally followed along on the map I printed out. Thank you for the visuals and tips !
We hope y'all have a great time! Thanks for watching!
I am in awe of the beautiful falls and to walk behind them is just so cool! Food looks great as always!!! Here comes the sugar rush!!! 🍦 My that all looks so tasty! Hi Kona! Keep on dancing!
Walking behind them is a real treat! We love Sugarpine Drive In! Thanks, Karen!
The waterfalls were magical! Each one so different.
Yes they are!
Stunning
Love this state park, went years ago, in the pouring rain. Would love to go back, maybe when it is a little drier.🥰
Awesome content love your channel will be in Portland in October picking up my new Sprinter Van and plan on visiting my places from your videos
Niiiiice! A fresh new van…how exciting!
Wow what a beautiful hike.
This place is epic!! Went there last year and even though the waterfalls were drying up it was still a sight to see and great hike.
Totally agree!
thanks for spotlighting this park...looks like the perfect family hike for us. If we ever make it I'm definitely telling the kids its the elves that carved out the trails.
It would be a great family hike! And yes remember to thank those elves! 😂
So glad you didn't stay with the lakes and rivers you're used to.
I saw stairs on that trail. Looked doable up to that point.
And another crack??? What a pain in the glass!!
😂😂 nice! We love lakes and rivers but ya can’t always stay with them! There are a bit of stairs, but not horrible
And yes another crack! 🤬
Silver Falls State Park is awesome!! I live just over an hour from there, and I have hiked Trail of Ten Falls a few times. Glad that you were able to do the trail!! :)
It’s great every time!
I love that park not only for the waterfalls but also the trees. Some of Oregon's most beautiful tress in my opinion.
Yes that is a beautiful park all around! Thanks for watching!
So beautiful! All the green and waterfalls reminds me of Hawaii
Ya! Us too! Thanks for watching!
I loved the spoons punctuating the end of the ice cream!
Thanks!
We were just there camping may 1st to the 4th! We hiked the trails on 3rd and 4th due to heavy rains. I bet we just missed you two. We were tent camping in loop A of the campground. :) Your videos are AMAZING! Always inspiring to get outdoors and explore. Thanks A&K
We were there about a week before that so ya pretty close! The campground is reeeally nice! Thank you and thanks for watching! ☺️❤️
I Wii that park on my bucket list...
Oh that was fantastic! I am definitely visiting those falls! We are so soaked this year in the Pac NW....
It has been very wet since we’ve been here!
I was there last month!! Loved south falls !
Pam and I tune into your videos every weekend. Thank you for making them and we look forward to the next one.
And by the way, you seem to eat at all of the places we would stop.
Doug and Pam
Great minds think alike! ☺️
Congratulations on the 100k subscribers
Absolutely beautiful
You're spot on. This hike is a superior one for those visiting! Great bang for your buck!!
Yes indeed!
What a beautiful, WET hike!! Had no idea that was there. I LOVE the Pacific Northwest and I'm so glad you're back in WA too!! That flower that you had in your lunch was a nasturtium (nas-ter-shum), they are edible flowers, but you probably already knew all that. Can't wait to see what you do in WA. Enjoy!!
It was such a beautiful and wet hike! We were soaked 😂! We can’t remember if Kathryn ate the flower or not, but probably. We didn’t know for sure, but figured it was edible. We’re loving the PNW ☺️
The videos are great. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Oregon is insanely beautiful.love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩❤️
❤️💙
My family just visited this park last year! We didn’t get to see all of the waterfalls but we will definitely have to come back after watching this :)
It’s definitely worth multiple visits!
This is the true definition of bang for your buck. All ten were great, but the first one takes the cake imho.
Yes indeed! And yes I agree the first is the best of them all
WOW!! This is going on my bucket list! I had no idea this was in Oregon!!
Lots to see!
Great job you guys! We have family in Gold Beach so we get back to Oregon every now and then. I haven’t been to Alaska so looking forward to your future videos. Not sure about all the vans that we saw when traveling to Capitol Reef and Escalante. They’re taking over the highways. Bracing for the summer assault here in southwestern Colorado. Nice videography and good editing! I’ll keep following along.😀👍
Yes there’s lots of ya out there! Thanks and thanks for watching!
Beautiful falls; almost missed you guys; no notification;; ice cream, yea baby😎😎😎😎😎👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Damn ya'll! This is getting exciting! You're getting closer and closer to Alaska! Awesome waterfall park! Water is Life, and Oregon has it in abundance. Last year we visited Toketee & Sahalie Falls. Ya'll might like those. There are some hot springs nearby you can soak in.
We are so pumped! Yes those waterfalls you mention look beautiful too! One day we’ll check ‘em out!
