Behind Yachats the creek valleys hold the waterfalls. Sweet Creek Falls near Mapleton stacks one cascade after another along 2.2 miles of trail with about 250 feet of gain, dogs welcome. Alsea Falls sits inland to the northeast, a 30-foot drop on a 2.4-mile loop; bring a swimsuit and the dog both, since the pool below is open for swimming. Cascade Falls asks a single flat mile. Twenty-four falls sit in range, and the coastal rain keeps most of them running well into the summer.
