Multnomah Falls

Multnomah Falls

During our last road trip through the US, we went back home using a different route yet again and this time bringing us through the Gorge area (Columbia River). What a beautiful area and amazing waterfalls that we encountered before it started raining. One of the most impressive was the Multnomah Falls.

Took this is B&W as the lighting didn`t seem to be collaborating.

Multnomah Falls is, of course, THE place to stop for tourists in the Columbia River Gorge area in Oregon. It is awesome how this waterfall seems to “tower” over everything, a sight to see. However, you will not have this wonderful waterfall to yourself. Try to get there early in the morning to avoid the rush. At around sunrise, there will probably be very few, if any, other people here, and it is a wonderful experience viewing this waterfall with no one else around. But at any other time of day, the hordes of people around the falls ruin the experience in my opinion. After you have had enough time basking in the presence of Multnomah, hike up to the top of the waterfall (2 miles RT). There’s not really a good view of the falls from the top, but there are other waterfalls up there, and also some good views of the Columbia River, and you can peer down at all the people looking up at the falls from the viewpoints below.
