awesome falls close to city
Getting There - a bit of a drive but nothing drastic
Attractions - just sick water
We rented a car so we had a bit easier access to reach this location from our hotel in downtown Portland. however, it is no more than 30 minutes away so even an Uber could be a reasonable way to get here. well worth the view, I didn’t know there was also a hike you could do too though and do to the weather we decided not to. if you decide to go, and want to do the hike, make sure you are prepared for it! also if you go on a rainy day make sure to bring a wind breaker, poncho, and umbrella to stay as dry as possible when visiting this gorgeous waterfall.

Multnomah Fallsis truly Breathtakingly Awesome❤️
#waterfall
The location of the Oregon Falls. The small and numerous waterfalls around our town of Trane are due to high rainfall and mountainous terrain, and soon led to the emergence of several waterfalls. In addition to the most famous Multnomah Falls, I would like to recommend a few waterfalls around Portland that can be visited on the same day, are suitable for all seasons, and are very beautiful for everyone. 1 Multnomah Falls (Figure 2-4) is located half an hour from downtown Portland and attracts many tourists on weekends. It is recommended to go to the waterfall early. It is located next to the parking lot and does not require hiking if you climb to the source of the waterfall for a one-way distance of 2.3 miles and a round-trip time of 3-4 hours

Finally Saw the Multnomah Falls
Visiting Multnomah Falls in Oregon is a journey into one of the Pacific Northwest’s most iconic natural wonders. Cascading over 620 feet, this two-tiered waterfall is a breathtaking sight that captivates visitors year-round. The easy hike to the base of the falls offers stunning views, with mist from the powerful waters cooling the air and creating a refreshing atmosphere. For those seeking a bit more adventure, a trail leads to Benson Bridge, where you can stand directly above the lower falls and feel the full force of the cascading water. Continue further up the trail for a more challenging hike that rewards you with panoramic views of the Columbia River Gorge. The lush, surrounding forest is rich with the scents and sounds of nature, making the hike as soothing as it is exhilarating. Whether you’re a seasoned hiker or just stopping by, Multnomah Falls offers an unforgettable experience, combining natural beauty with the thrill of discovery.

Multnomah Falls
Getting There - You need to get to the gateway transit center which is about 20 minutes from downtown Portland on the metro. Once there pre book tickets from the website as there’s no wifi close by, it was around $15 for a return bus ticket. Once at the gateway transit look for “Columbia gorge express” it was located at the front of the bus line up when I went. Board and takes you right outside the falls.
Attractions - The falls itself are breathtaking. They have walks for all capabilities, whether you want to hike to the top or just stay and admired the waterfall from the bottom. The location is great and not too full of tourists so makes it easier to get around.
Hotels - I didn’t see any near by hotels. However I stayed in Portland center and was able to get to the falls so easily. You could even Uber there for under $30 one way
Food & Restaurants - Located right outside the falls is the “Multnomah Lodge” with a rustic style restaurant. Prices were great considering the location it was in and no competition near by. I got the club sandwich and was very satisfied.
Shopping - The Falls are located in the middle of nowhere the only shop is the gift shop right outside where you will find your usual bits and pieces and a small snack stand outside so come prepared if you want more than that.

Photos from playing in Seattle and Oregon.
The itinerary at that time was mainly for relaxation, introducing several scenic spots.
Rowena Crest Viewpoint
A U-shaped road, when viewed from the mountaintop, the wind is really strong,
The feeling of being blown away by you at any time.
Crater Lake National Park
Oregon's only national park,
Before June, it was not fully open. When we went, we encountered heavy fog in the afternoon.
The fog really affects a lot 😭.
Multnomah Falls
Between Seattle and Portland. Many people are taking photos,
From below, walk a short distance to reach the bridge and see the waterfall.

Personally, I think it's just average. Need to go mountain climbing 🧗♀️.
When I went there, I saw many rock climbing enthusiasts climbing.
But if you are not a rock climbing enthusiast and have limited time,
This attraction can be skipped.

Multnomah Falls: Family-Fun-Festivities
We traveled from Vermont to Oregon for a wedding, but had a couple days to take in the sights.
Multnomah Falls is a great place to take the family for a lovely view and a short easy walk.
Our party included some elderly and handicapped folks so this was a perfect way for all of us to get up close to a spectacular waterfall.
We thoroughly enjoyed the short easy hike and picked up a few mementos from the gift shop to bring home.
