A two-tiered, roughly 120-foot waterfall on the North Umpqua River, reached by a short trail off Oregon's Rogue-Umpqua Scenic Byway.

Toketee Falls drops in two tiers on the North Umpqua River in Umpqua National Forest: the upper tier falls about 40 feet before the lower tier plunges another 80 feet over a wall of columnar basalt. The viewpoint sits a short walk from a dedicated trailhead off the Rogue-Umpqua Scenic Byway, and the Forest Service counts it among the most photographed waterfalls along that route.

The Umpqua National Forest's own trailhead page lists the hike at 0.4 miles each way on Toketee Falls Trail #1495, with no fee, a vault toilet and picnic tables at the trailhead, and no potable water on site. From Roseburg, the route runs east on OR-138 to milepost 58.6, then north on Forest Road 34 (Toketee-Rigdon Road) and across the first bridge to the parking area. At our review the site was listed open with moderate fire danger and no public-use restrictions in effect; check the North Umpqua Ranger Station's current notices, since the district office itself is staffed only Wednesdays and Fridays.
