Ti'lomikh Falls is a series of whitewater cascades on the Rogue River located just outside the town of Gold Hill. 

While the river is fast flowing here and there are no spots good for swimming, there are several areas for viewing the rapids. The area is known as a challenging spot for kayakers and paddlers to try their whitewater navigation skills. In the past, there has been talk of creating an Olympic Whitewater Center.

Along the river banks here are several spots to stop and take in the views of the water. A paved path follows the river here, from which locals have created a number of small use trails leading into the shady thickets beside the water. There is a picnic table just upslope from the rushing flow. 

The land has historical use by the Takelma Tribe and annual salmon ceremonies still take place here. 

There is a gravel parking lot offering quick and easy access to the area, along with a paved multi-use path ending near the falls that connects to downtown Gold Hill about 1.5 miles away. There are no amenities of any kind located here.

Those looking to keep up with updates for the area's whitewater park progression can visit the Gold Hill Whitewater Center website.
