Hiking to Frustration Falls starts at a trailhead that runs south along Salmon River starting in the town of Welches on U.S. Route 26 as it goes through Mount Hood National Forest. The first landmark is the Green Canyon Campground with a functional restroom. The trail crosses over the Salmon River through a wooden bridge. Two miles later, nestled in the forest along the trail is the historic Rolling Riffle Campground. A mile ahead the trail leads to the Bighorn Campground. Approximately a half mile after is Final Falls and further upstream Frustration Falls.
The trail is approximately 7 mi (11 km) long and requires skill, visitors should always follow rules of safe waterfall hiking when visiting Frustration Falls.
