Feather Falls Trails Feather Falls National Recreation Trail offers incredible views of Bald Rock Dome, Bald Rock Canyon, and the 640-foot Feather Falls. There are two options to reach the overlook at Feather Falls. At 1/3 mile past the trailhead, the trail diverges. A 3.3 mile path to the west and a gently sloping 4.5 mile path to the east is best for the inexperienced hiker. Both trails lead you to the Feather Falls observation deck. Either one you take is a beautiful experience, make sure to bring plenty of water and snacks. Before starting the hike make sure to use the restroom since the trails don’t have one available.

Trial is closed, don't waste your time getting there

It's CLOSED due to the potential dangers from the burned trees falling. Was just there and end up coming back. Don't waste your time going.

This was once a lush wooded forest but fires have destroyed it. Did the whole loop and saw the beautiful waterfall but bridges are burned out and trees have fallen over parts on the trail. It looks like the forestry service is beginning to work on this but there’s lots to do still There were no signs saying the trail was closed and we saw plenty of people.

NorCal Hiker Feather Falls  Christa 8 years ago  Basics: Feather Falls has to be one of the best waterfalls in California (outside of Yosemite), especially in the spring when it is huge! It is located in Plumas National Forest and can be visited year-round. The hike is 7 to 9 miles depending on which trail you choose to take. There is an elevation loss of about 1000 feet on the way to the falls. Directions to Trailhead: From Oroville, drive east on Hwy 162 for 6.6 miles. Turn right on Forbestown Rd. After 6 miles, make a left on Lumpkin Rd. In another 11 miles you will see a sign for Feather Falls. Make a left at the sign – the trailhead will be 1 or 2 miles further. Trail Description: We started our hike at the Feather Falls trailhead. There is no entry fee, plenty of parking (at least on a weekday) and there are pit toilets (though they must be relatively old because they were very smelly and very dark). We met two very cute stray dogs when we first pulled into the
I thought it was approximately 7 miles
Yes but as Corey said, it only has a few sites. It is beautiful!
The water is very cold! But there are creeks to soak your tired feet in
