Yacolt Falls — Local services in Battle Ground

Yacolt Falls is a two-tier waterfall across the street from Moulton Falls Regional Park, so you know it's beautiful, just like everything in this area. Just cross the street at the safety crossing, walk up Lucia Falls road for a short distance, and you will arrive. There is also dirt parking right in front of the falls.

It is a small and easy hike that has a swing bridge that crosses over the falls, connecting you to the other side. I went yesterday (4/26/25), and the water is coming down the falls strong still this time of year, so now is a great time to go see these falls as well as the surrounding falls. The swing bridge is not crossed over right now, but you can still get wonderful views of the falls and surrounding water pools.

If you have not been to these falls or any of the other various falls and hikes in the area, you're missing out.

Please keep this area in the pristine condition you will find it in. Clean up dog poop and throw away your trash, please, so that everyone can enjoy the beauty of Yacolt. Hikers and nature lovers will greatly appreciate...

Beautiful falls. The bridge at Yacolt falls was closed but we came from the south so it was fine. We parked at Moulton Falls and took the trail up to it. The trail could really use some TLC though as there were several streams crossing it and some fallen trees, as well as several rotting picnic tables as well. We went around Thanksgiving and there was a lot of water going...

Yacolt Falls can sometimes get overlooked, being near to other remarkable features. But it can be worth your time to take a short walk to the well placed viewing area by walking from the parking area and along the guardrail in the downstream direction. During the dry season it can draw down to a fraction of it's Winter or Spring...
