The hike is very popular, but (in my opinion) offers an excellent hike that is just far enough to not see the swarms of people the closer falls see. The path is well travelled and easy, this is a very family friendly hike. Be sure to bring a camera, the scenery is exquisite! Tags: hike, family friendly, beginner, access: paved Trailhead The trailhead is reached from exit 40 on I-84 in the Columbia River Gorge. This is about 35 miles east of Portland. Take exit 40, and go south. Just after the highway, the road forks. Right goes into the Yeon State Park / Wahclella Falls trailhead. There is a fee to park at the trailhead. Route To Munra Falls (0.3 miles) From the trailhead, follow the well used trail south into Tanner Creek. After 0.3 miles (5 minutes), the Lower Wahclella Falls - Columbia River Gorge Oregon - Road Trip Ryan, LLC - Copyright 2006-2020 1 / 3 Munra Falls comes in on the left and is quite pretty and striking.

The USDA Forest Service in partnership with Oregon Department of Transportation, and Multnomah Fall Co., Inc. will allow access to Multnomah Falls and Lodge in a phased approach. Phase 1 will allow limited access to provide safe and adequate social distancing. This may lead to longer lines in a “queueing area” while waiting to enter the site. The site is available from 9:00 am through 6:00 pm. Phase 2 will introduce a ticketing system which allows access by reservation on ly through rec.gov. Limited number of tickets will be available on hourly basis and must be obtained at least a day in advance of a planned visit. The permit system will be implemented within the next few weeks. “We are dedicated to providing access to the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area and Multnomah Falls,” said Lynn Burditt, Forest Supervisor, “through aligning with all state and CDC safety guidelines, addressing safety concerns, and connecting people with this natural and historic treasure.” To provide for the protection of public health and safety and prevent the spread of COVID-19, face coverings are required throughout the area and people will need to maintain social distancing before entering and while visiting Multnomah Falls Recreation Area and the Historic Lodge.
