The viewing platform is less than a half mile down the trail. Hikers get a unique view into the pool between both waterfalls. If you need a little faster paced recreation, there is the North Umpqua Trail. This is a very popular trail for mountain biking. Many bikers use Toketee as a base camp for exploring the North Umpqua Trail. |

| recreationDescription |
Many people enjoy some of the state’s best German brown trout fishing. Currently Toketee Lake is 2-3 feet lower than usual, so small non-powered boats are best. Toketee group site is located next to one of the trailheads for the famous North Umpqua Trial. This trail is a favorite for all non-motorized enthusiasts of all kinds. |
