This a famous and beautiful waterfall in Columbia Gorge. Parking lot can fill up fast especially on the weekend. You can see the falls from viewing area but I recommend hiking up the trail a bit to get to the bridge. The hike to the top of the falls is gives you many different views of this famous waterfall. Multnomah Falls Trail Length 2.4 mi and Elevation gain 810 ft. This would be a great stop when heading to Stevenson from Portland or on your way home. 20 miles from Skamania lodge (towards Portland).
This is a favorite hike of ours also where Stephen proposed. About 3.5 miles out and back with elevation gain of about 580 ft. It is about an hour drive from Skamania Lodge. Day use fee of $5/vehicle/day or Northwest Forest Pass ($30 for the year)
Brewery close to welcome dinner and venue - delicious food and beers.
Our absolute favorite place in Oregon to get a milkshake
