Know before you go

Oregon's iconic electric-blue pool where the McKenzie resurfaces from underground lava — a ~4 mi round-trip hike on the McKenzie River Trail.

☀︎ First-timer tip: Breathtaking clarity, but the water is ~37°F year-round and cliff-jumping here has caused serious injuries and deaths — look, wade carefully, don't jump.
