Alsea Falls in April. The flow is higher than in the summer, when the area becomes a popular swimming hole.

A trip to up to the summit of nearby Mary's Peak makes a great combination day trip with Alsea Falls. From the top of the Oregon Coast Range's highest peak you can see all the way to the ocean, a large part of the Willamette Valley, and if you're lucky, the snowy peaks of the High Cascades.
