Oregon Saves Abiqua Falls: A Natural Landmark
Oregon Lawmakers Save Abiqua Falls: A Beloved Natural Landmark Secured for Public Access
Abiqua Falls, a stunning 92-foot waterfall, has been privately owned for over a century but always open to hikers. Fears of closure sparked when the nonprofit owner listed it for sale. However, a bipartisan bill passed, allocating $2.1 million to buy the falls and surrounding land. The site will remain protected and open for generations, potentially managed by local or tribal groups to maintain accessibility without excessive crowds or fees.
