Mc-Arthur Burney Falls and Klamath Falls

Is it possible to experience these 2 waterfalls 3 hours each?

My answer would be no. My son and I spent three days at McArthur-Burney and could have stayed another week. I know where the city of Klamath Falls is located but don't have a clue as to where the falls themselves are. If they are like Multnomah Falls up on the Columbia, three hours might be enough if you are not a hiker.

There isn't much "Falls" in Klamath Falls. Just mainly rapids in the river. AFAIK the the real 'falls' were obliterated decades ago when the dam was built. Nothing at all like Burney Falls.

Meant to add a - a better 'two-fer' with Burney Falls would be Mossbrae Falls in Dunsmuir.

Burney Falls are magical. Make sure you go all the way to the bottom and if possible in the morning to see the rainbow. However, unless you plan to hike other trails, picnic, etc, I can't see that you'd spend more than an hour at the most there as trail to falls is very short.
