5.0 The Thyme Garden (1 review)
- Worth the Drive
Lessons & Workshops • Gardens

My sister & I recently went to a luncheon & tour of the Thyme Gardens. It’s well-worth the drive. We started with a tour of the herb & flower gardens, which was very informative. We walked along a trail with creeks & woods. Be sure to wear good walking shoes. Had a multi-course lunch prepared fresh with edible flowers. Prepped & served by the owners & family. It took 3 hours total time including lunch. Highly recommend this place for a unique dining experience. Very peaceful & relaxing. Will go back in the future. See more..
4.5 Alsea Falls Recreation Site (16 reviews)
- Hiking or Biking
Nature & Wildlife Areas

Went on the Alsea falls trail head that turned out to be more for mountain bikers than trail hikers. We got 8.4 miles heading up the busy bike trail, having to often step off the trail to make way for the mountain bikers. The trail works it’s way up about 1300 feet in elevation gradually and you stay in a thinned forest until you hit mile 4. Then you are in a natural forest with old growth. I don’t recommend the hike for kids just because all the bikers and the need to keep a constant vigilance for them. The area is well marked making getting to the trail head easy. The trail is easy to follow. The way down back to parking lot is a old logging road. See more..
