Multnomah Falls
Admission includedStanding at the base of Multnomah Falls, you feel the cool mist before you see the full drop. The water plunges more than 600 feet in two tiers, framed by basalt cliffs draped in ferns and moss. A short hike brings you to the Benson Bridge, where Multnomah Falls reveals its full scale directly above you. Few places in the Pacific Northwest offer this kind of immediate, unfiltered encounter with raw natural power.
