Oregon’s natural wonders are a true sight to behold, and Multnomah Falls is one of our most popular. While you can see the falls right from the parking lot, many visitors choose to make the trek to Benson Bridge for a breathtaking, close-up look at the falls. Before you head up the trail, stop at this historic lodge for a bite to eat.

Multnomah Falls is one of Oregon’s most treasured waterfalls, and the tallest in the state. People come from all over the world to visit this 620-foot-tall beauty.

Visitors can take a quick 1/4-mile stroll to the falls overlook…

…or take the slightly longer trail to Benson Bridge. This trail is moderately difficult, with a 700-foot elevation gain. It’s 2.2 miles out and back, and you’ll still see signs of the Eagle Creek Fire along the trail.

Once you reach the bridge, you’ll have some fabulous views of the Columbia River in the distance.

Multnomah Falls Lodge is a gorgeous, historic building that was completed in 1925. Thanks to the hard work of firefighters, the lodge was spared in the Eagle Creek Fire of 2017, and its restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and Sunday brunch.
