About

This park is a total gem for waterfall lovers. It is way less crowded than the big-name spots nearby, which is a huge plus. The hike to the falls is short and sweet, making it perfect for families or a quick nature escape. It is lush, green, and feels like a true Pacific Northwest paradise. Just watch out for muddy trails after rain.

A peaceful escape from the city.

The basalt columns are unique.

Bring a raincoat for the mist.
