Amazingly beautiful area! There is a short but fairly steep hike up the left side of the stream with some great photo spots. To the right is a 0.2 mile paved trail that leads up to a bridge with a spectacular view. Also, another benefit is free parking here and a 0.5 mile hike/walk to Multnomah Falls (where parking is $20).

I was here on October 8th. From this spot, where parking is for free, you can do a 5 mile loop ending at Multnomah falls then walk back to this parking lot, like 5-10 minutes. This 5 mile loop is very pretty and has a number of falls. The only issue with it is that you'll keep hearing the traffic. But this way is easier than starting at Multnomah where a steep ascend is needed. I spent 4 hours here but people can finish it way faster.

We recently visited Wahkeena Falls in Oregon, and our whole family absolutely loved it! The trail is beautiful, the views are amazing, and it’s the perfect spot to enjoy nature without a long hike. The area has plenty of peaceful places to sit, making it a great spot for a family picnic , we brought lunch and it was one of the highlights of our trip. One thing to note: the restroom near the trailhead was closed, likely because of the season. It wasn’t a big issue for us, but good to know ahead of time. Overall, Wahkeena Falls is a wonderful place to relax, explore, and enjoy the beauty of the Columbia River Gorge. Highly recommend for families looking for a scenic and memorable outdoor experience!

This place is amazing. These were the last waterfalls we visited on our Oregon photography tour. I am sure glad we didn't skip this place. These were the most photogenic waterfalls that we saw on our trip. There were quite a few people, but adequate parking was available down the hill and there was scenery right in the parking area and all around. Surprisingly there aren't any fees charged to hike around this place. You can pretty much find the perfect angle to get any camera shot you want.

Beautiful fall but hard to get a good photo of entire thing due to formation. No hiking involved. You can park here and walk on trail to all the other popular falls, like Multnomah, since parking is tougher in the other popular falls.

My friend says this is her favorite. I believe Multnomah Falls was better overall. But there is a short hike and limited access here so you can't really sense the powerful presence of the waterfalls. But you should take a look.

This is just another gorgeous fall along the Columbia River gorge. You can see some of it at the base. But best to hike up about a quarter of a mile. .25 miles. You can see some of the river as it comes down thru the bushes and trees and rocks. If you hike up the .25 Mike's to the bridge, you get a gorgeous view of the falls. If you are doing photography, be prepared for the mist. Take image from the left side of the falls a littlw bit back. You will be outside the mist. Images also from the right If you are a little bit back. But love the images I got right by the bridge on the right side. Yea mist from the fall. You can keep hiking and find fairy falls. Next time I will do that hike. This is worth the time. If coming from Portland take the Bridal Veil Falls exit and keep going on historic route 30 for about 2.5 miles. There is a good amount of parking and a picnic area and bathrooms. If you keep going another mile or 2 you will hit Multnomah falls.

One of the most iconic Columbia Gorge viewpoints! Fun to meet up with other photographers here. No services.

A great place to view the gorge looking east and on the way to Crown Point you can see for miles I didn't take it but there is a trail rated "easy" in the media to the gorge floor. There must be lots of switchbacks to be easy.

Beautiful park, with great trails and views. I really enjoyed myself.

Online can destroy gems like this, many people stop here because it's the first overlook in the tithe Gorge. My favorite time to go when there's 3 inches or more of ice on everything! No one around!

Have never stopped here before, but road to Crown Poont was closed so...nice viewpoint, plenty of parking, a few of the info plaques around-worth the few minutes it takes!

It has a remarkable overlook view of the river. We also met some ladies painting.

Historical value in addition to the gorgeous view. Visited in the end of June and it was stunning. What a great place to bring a camera! Perfectly quiet, sunny and no wind. View of the Vista house makes for a great photo opp. Drive safe, the road is like a coil up from I-84. As always, pack it in-pack it out. Do not leave your Starbucks cups behind (or any other trash). Marker has historical significance. (See videos).

Although the area is quite large, there aren’t many brands that catch my interest, so I don’t visit frequently. However, the Coach store is fairly sizable, which is why I occasionally stop by. Despite the heavy rain, I managed to purchase the necessary items and took a short break at Starbucks with a cup of tea before heading out to visit the falls. The Columbia, Adidas, Pendleton, and Coach stores are worth browsing here.

Had lots of fun walking, shopping 🛍 and eating! 🍦 🍨 Lots of stores here. There is plenty of parking space! Highly recommended!! There's music playing from the store 😊

All kinds of gear jus not my thing. Many happy folks everywhere. So check em out if you’re ever in the neighborhood and Holla at a Playa.

Every store I go into has always been quite well kept and the employees knowledgeable about the product(s) they sell. Rack Room Shoes does happen to be my favorite, and usually the reason for my trip out to this mall .

It is a lovely small shopping complex. If you are looking for a Columbia Brand at an affordable price, please visit here. They have 70% because it's an outlet price.

My experience was that while it offers a variety of stores and a decent selection of brands, the overall atmosphere lacks a bit of excitement. The layout is clear, you can see all stores in one glance from any corner as it is a small mall compared to other outlets. There’s a lot of parking available and its located right off of few major highways touching many areas in OR. The food options are standard mall fare, and the seating areas could use improvement for those needing a break from shopping. If you're in the area and need to do some shopping, it serves its purpose, but it might not be worth a special trip. Overall, an average shopping stop.

Always stop at the Jockey Store. Claw City is nuthin but Claw Machines 😮 Why didn’t I think of that? 😔 I was diggin’ the Converse from Famous Footwear 😉 For a Saturday, joint was slow.

Waterfall is right off the road. Parking is limited-so go early. A short walk to see this beautiful site.

Quick little 100 foot hike down a hill and to the middle of shephards dell waterfall. Beautiful!

Most people skip this place, which is too bad, because it’s one of the best waterfall experiences in the gorge! It’s easy to understand, however, why people miss it. The Columbia River Highway is narrow and windy, with many blind curves. Shepherds Dell sneaks up on you, and I would imagine that a lot of people don’t even see the sign. They pass it before they even realize it was there. Unlike other waterfalls, you cannot see very much of anything without getting out of the car. All the action is below the bridge. If you don’t get out of the car, you will miss it completely. But one step below the bridge, and you will realize that it’s a worthwhile stop. Just below the bridge, there is a narrow paid footpath that goes from the highway, down by somewhat steep path, about the length of a football field. It curves gently to the right, and you find yourself at the top of a beautiful waterfall. The falls run directly under the bridge, and the beauty of this tiny little natural area is that you can see the whole thing in 5 minutes. It’s perfect for our Instagram/TicTok era attention span. A potential difficulty is that there is no actual parking lot, just a larger than average pull-out after the bridge. This makes it easier to miss, but it also adds to its charm.

One of my favorite waterfalls & bridge. Gorgeous stone wall trail leads down to a creek cascading into the waterfall. Just beautiful. We had this one to ourselves which was awesome to enjoy. Fall colors peeking through the green was lovely.

This beautiful falls along the Historic Columbia River Highway is worth a quick stop as you explore the bigger-name waterfalls along the highway.

Absolutely stunning definitely not wheelchair accessible however it is accessible to those with limited mobility in need of walking assistance there is plenty of areas that do get steep but for hiking with forearm crutches being one legged it was quite easy and the waterfall is breathtaking

nice but short path that leads to a waterfall view

Amazing hike with beautiful views! This was a steep hike with sort of a paved walk way. There were 2 routes we saw up top, but considering this was an unplanned hike we stayed on the paved side and made it to the top of the waterfall! It rained a bit and that made the ground bit slippery if you aren't wearing the right shoes. P.S. don't forget to bring your water!!

It's one of the most filmographic and mystical places I've ever seen. You absolutely must see it. There are many waterfalls in this area, but the weather here is incredible. Inside, there's a lovely gift shop and a small area for coffee and other things. There's a 0.2-mile path leading to the bridge. But there are also routes for longer walks. But I want to warn you about parking. Finding a parking spot in the parking area right in front of the waterfall is very, very difficult. I thought I wouldn't be able to stop, but on the map, I saw a parking lot across the road, so I went there. But you have to drive 5 miles :)) This park is large and free. After parking, you can access it immediately by crossing an underpass.

What a beautiful place. The hike up to the top was great. *Be aware of the possibility of slipping on the trail. You should wear good outdoor shoes. Other people made it up with regular shoes. *Dogs are allowed on the trail🙌🏽 To end the hike, you will have coffee and or food available. Or before you start. Overall we had a great time. Side note: For those who visit, you should be cognizant of others trying to get through the bridge. It is a beautiful site for photos, but you shouldn’t take more than 5 minutes due to the cluster of people. Maybe take a few and come back. Ok enjoy.

Seeing the falls in all their might after two days of rain was an awe-inspiring experience. I would recommend doing the 5.5 mile loop that invludes several smaller falls up the mountain.

Great place to stop for a break or to enjoy a nature walk. There is a restaurant, a coffee shop before or after your walk and a gift shop. Walk is no more than a mile to enjoy the water fall. There is a longer hike if you want more adventure.

Exploring Multnomah Falls has been an absolutely breathtaking experience! It truly is a stunning natural wonder that lives up to its iconic status. The sheer power and beauty of the water cascading down are mesmerizing. It is overwhelmingly considered a stunning, must-see natural wonder that lives up to its iconic status. The awe-inspiring 620-foot, two-tiered cascade and its lush Pacific Northwest surroundings are often described as picturesque and majestic. The view from the primary viewing area, a short, flat walk from the parking lot, offers the best overall photo opportunity of the entire falls and the iconic Benson Footbridge. This makes it accessible for all mobility levels. The location right off Interstate 84 (I-84) makes it an easy day trip from Portland, which is about a 30-35 minute drive away. The historic Multnomah Falls Lodge at the base provides restrooms, a gift shop, a snack bar, and a restaurant, making it a convenient stop. Wear appropriate footwear with good traction, as the paved trails can be steep, wet, and uneven. Bringing a windbreaker or rain jacket is also a good idea due to the constant mist near the falls. It's a must-see if you ever get the chance to visit!

1 hour away from portland this is a great spot for a quick hike and to experience nature. Just don't stop at the bridge (where most of the tourist stops) but go beyond to the very top.

Donna did a great job framing a very special painting of the 'Little Red Chapel' located in ' The Grotto.' The acrylic was done by a friend in Nepal. I highly recommend this store. If you have a special picture that needs to be framed by the best; go here.

Donna is the best framer. I have taken in many pictures to be framed. She is delightful, and besides being a nice person, a gifted artist. She has an "eye" for bringing out the best in a picture, and willing to work with the customer.

This lady is absolutely an artist took my simple pictures and brought life to them! And longevity

Donna has framed many pictures for us over the years. We wouldn’t use anyone else. She has a wonderful eye for color and texture — very creative and always professional.

Definitely exceeded my expectations! I explained I was on a budget and Donna was still extremely professional, & made it a very pleasant experience.

Very professional and helpful. Donna took her time with me, gave me several options for my project, and worked with me on costs. The framing turned out great, and my husband loved it.

Donna is amazing! If you need anything framed, she's your girl.
