Beautiful and massive waterfall that is near Portland, Oregon. There is a parking structure at the bottom which you have to pay and make a reservation in advance since this is a huge tourist attraction and spaces are limited. There is also a shuttle available if you need one. We made the earliest reservation available to avoid heavy traffic. The climb up this mountain is very steep and requires some resilience. There are many viewpoints and trails to walk around in the nearby vicinity. You must walk miles to make it to the top (we turned around), but this massive waterfall is definitely a beauty. Dog friendly and there are restrooms located at the visitor’s center at the bottom of the mountain.

Multnomah Falls stands as a breathtaking natural wonder in the picturesque state of Oregon. The journey from Seattle, Washington, takes approximately three hours, making it a worthwhile excursion for those seeking the beauty of the Pacific Northwest.

Please note that there is a nominal $2 recreation fee required before accessing the parking area conveniently located near the falls. This fee supports the preservation and maintenance of this remarkable site, ensuring its continued beauty for generations to come.

The falls themselves are a true spectacle of nature, offering various vantage points from which to marvel at their splendor. The choice of viewpoint depends on your available time and personal preferences, but each offers a unique perspective of the cascading waters.

For your convenience, there are public restrooms situated just below the falls, ensuring a comfortable visit. Additionally, there is a gift shop and a quaint eatery near the falls, providing opportunities for souvenirs and refreshments.

Parking near the falls is ample, alleviating any concerns about finding a spot for your visit. Multnomah Falls undoubtedly ranks among the region's must-visit destinations, offering a harmonious blend of natural beauty and accessibility. Whether you're a local or a traveler, a visit here promises to be a memorable and awe-inspiring experience.

Multnomah Falls is the star of the show, the Columbia River Gorge itself is an outdoor enthusiast's paradise. Numerous hiking trails, viewpoints, and picnic areas are scattered throughout the area, offering plenty of opportunities to explore the surrounding natural beauty. You can enjoy the views.

Being a first-time visitor to the state of Oregon. I'm lucky to have seen this beautiful place. A short walk to an amazing place. Simply breath-taking.

Please read before you go.
1) Book one-hour timed slots online for 2$. You are allowed to book up-to two slots per day.
2) There is a big Parking Lot next to I-84 that is free. You will need to show them the online slot you booked to park here.
3) If you are taking the scenic highway (like us) instead of I-85, you will not have easy access to the parking lot mentioned above. There is a smaller parking lot right in front of the falls (by the scenic route) but this is full most of the time.
4) The staff in charge of the small parking lot above kept telling us to take a shuttle instead. This shuttle pickup is about 3 miles away close to Angel’s Rest Trailhead. This is a TOURIST TRAP, the shuttle is 15$ per person and car parking is 5$.
5) We circled around a few times before getting a spot in the small parking lot. The Falls is gorgeous, the views are just magical. We went on a Sunday and it was so crowded. So please avoid weekends if you can.
6) There are a few trails. We only did the climb up-to the bridge as we thought the other ones were not worth it. This was a 0.2 mile climb. You can also climb to the too of the falls of you like but this is harder.
7) The place also have a visitor center, restrooms, gift shops, restaurant, and ice cream shop. We had the Chocolate-Vanilla Swirls for 5$ and thought it was worth it.

Overall a great experience. The falls is just stunning. The parking situation was initially a little stressful though.

Certainly a super hike. A must see in the PNW, so if you can, I recommend not only going, but doing the hike as well. I ended up hiking this while it was snowing, raining, and hailing all in the same hike. The views are totally worth it, and the hike down is certainly easier than the hike up. 😂

Beautiful viewpoint and short hike, highly recommend if you’re going to the falls!

It's a nice and beautiful waterfall. It is easily accessible and it's good to sit and you can spend some time nearby the falls. Indeed a beautiful location for photography. Before coming to this place I have seen some great pictures of multnomah falls and I can see they are absurd true. Its worth visiting this place once you are in on nearby Portland.
