wahkeena falls印象

We saw a few falls on the old highway, but we liked Multanomah Falls the most. Wahkeena falls was small and the area is under construction, so it will be nice when finished.

It's a short walk from the parking lot to the bridge where you can feel the spray of the falls on you (and your camera). Flow seems more powerful than Multnomah - which can be felt on the bridge. Perfect for a nice hot sunny day in July!Parking is easy to find, right at the base of the trail. More parking available the earlier you go in the day. The falls are a beautiful place to relax, breathe the fresh air and enjoy nature.

Come early to avoid crowds by this waterfall. Easy hike. I like to start at Multnomah Falls and climb up the trail to the top of the falls and follow the Wahkeena Falls trail. Then you come down the trail and avoid the crowds! Beautiful all year round.

We almost drove right past this waterfall, but I'm so glad we stopped! This is an incredibly beautiful multi-tier waterfall, in the same style as Multnomah Falls. Unfortunately we didn't have the time or inclination to do any hiking in the area. The trails would all be spectacular, but hard work with all those hills!

Moderate hike about 5.5 miles including the hike from Multnomah Falls Lodge back to the Wahkeena Falls trailhead on the Return Trail. The ONLY reason I down-rated this hike was that I hate the crowds at Multnomah Falls. We hiked in from Wahkeena trailhead, took Larch Mt. trail and dropped down to Multnomah Falls/Benson Bridge, the tourist hiking mecca of Portland. Until then, the hike is absolutely stunning: you'll see Wahkeena Falls, of course, then Fairy Falls, Ecola Falls, Weisendanger Falls, Dutchman Falls, and finally Multnomah Falls. Once you cross Multnomah Creek just above Multnomah Falls, the crowds are thick and often inconsiderate. There is a severe lack of 'trail etiquette" that you see on other hikes: Groups walk side by side across the trail REALLY SLOWLY and don't move over for faster hikers to pass. I found that using bicycle language (i.e. saying loudly "Passing on the Left") worked pretty well, though. Otherwise, this really is a worthwhile hike and I can't wait to do the alternate loop: Multnomah to Horsetail Falls.

The short hike takes you an impressive waterfall with a mist swirling all around. The bridge gives you a very up close look that captures the power and majesty of water falls. A sort hike up from the falls is a sitting area that is in the afternoon sun. The perfect picnic spot. You can hike further if you are inclined or take the short walk back down to the parking area.You can park all along the road either before or after the trail head.

We went the opposite way most go - leaving the splendor of Multnomah Falls to the last... Wahkeena was the first stop of the 5.4 mile hike and very pretty. You can climb right up to the falls if you are so guided.. or remain on the path and the bridge over the stream. Definitely a great start!

Like others in the area this is a nice little hike and falls along highway 30. If you're along this stretch of road then your obviously looking for some natural beauty. Stop and take it in. There are short and long trails so pick your endurance and enjoy.

That said it all we hiked all the falls had lunch the lodge great coffee and food. All the falls were a great sight were use to small windy roads so no problem but I don't think anyone would have a problem with this road

This natural beauty was a pleasure to hike through. It takes a while, but it certainly has a variety of sights throughout: Nice overlook area for the Columbia River, log/or wooden bridges to cross over, the falls itself, some coves to look in (almost cave-like, but not that big), and gorgeous tall green trees throughout. I look forward to coming back to it.
