Benham Falls are rapids of the Deschutes River located between the resort community of Sunriver and the town of Bend, Oregon, United States.
With a pitch of 22.5°, they are rated Class 5 for watercraft, and are the largest falls on the upper Deschutes.
[2] The river eventually flowed over the dam, draining the lake and thus forming Benham Falls.
A footbridge connects the forest road to an easy-to-navigate trail near the river and falls.
The United States Forest Service has established a few lookouts over the gorge for viewers.
