Portland's Iconic Double-Decker Waterfall: Multnomah Falls 🌊✨
Driving north along the Columbia River feels like being in a movie—glacial blue waters on one side, snaking train tracks beneath towering cliffs on the other. This region is waterfall heaven, and the crown jewel? Multnomah Falls, Portland’s postcard-perfect landmark! 🌿 The Magic of Multnomah Falls Two-tiered wonder: A 620-foot (189m) drop (2nd tallest in the U.S.!). Twilight vibes: Filming location for Twilight’s iconic forest scenes. 🌲🧛🏻♂️ Hidden source: At the top, you’ll find just a peaceful mountain stream—proof of nature’s alchemy! Rainbow chase: Hike the trail for epic angles (and maybe a rainbow!). 🌈 🥾 Trail Intel Summit hike: ~1.5 hours round-trip to the top viewpoint. Free access: No tickets needed! The main lot offers a full frontal view. Summer tip: Reservations required 9AM-6PM ($2); after 6PM, walk right in! Parking hack: Closest lot is private (small fee), but worth it for lazy legs. 💫 Why It’s Unmissable Standing at the base, feeling the mist, and realizing this thundering cascade starts as a trickle in the woods? Pure awe. As they say: "Mountains ahead, rivers below, and adventure in every step." #PortlandAdventures #WaterfallChaser #RoadTripDreams #PNWParadise #NatureIsLit #HikeMoreWorryLess
