Oregon’s natural wonders are a true sight to behold, and Multnomah Falls is one of our most popular. While you can see the falls right from the parking lot, many visitors choose to make the trek to Benson Bridge for a breathtaking, close-up look at the falls. Before you head up the trail, stop at this historic lodge for a bite to eat.
Multnomah Falls is one of Oregon's most treasured waterfalls, and the tallest in the state. People come from all over the world to visit this 620-foot-tall beauty.
...or take the slightly longer trail to Benson Bridge. This trail is moderately difficult, with a 700-foot elevation gain. It's 2.2 miles out and back, and you'll still see signs of the Eagle Creek Fire along the trail.
Multnomah Falls Lodge is a gorgeous, historic building that was completed in 1925. Thanks to the hard work of firefighters, the lodge was spared in the Eagle Creek Fire of 2017, and its restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and Sunday brunch.
Stop by for a hearty breakfast before you hike to the falls. Offerings include everything from smoked salmon hash to an array of Benedicts to pancakes and French toast.
Lunch is served from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., and you'll enjoy burgers, sandwiches, salads, and entrees like grilled wild salmon, fish and chips, and nachos.
The dinner menu is delicious! Enjoy a delicious ribeye steak or cut of prime rib, bacon-wrapped trout, wild salmon, and a host of other mouth-watering meals.
The brunch buffet includes a carving station with roast beef and ham, chicken fried steak, bacon and sausage, eggs Benedict, roasted potatoes, pancakes, cinnamon rolls, muffins, and more. Try a little bit of everything!
Dine at Multnomah Falls Lodge Monday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m., Sunday for brunch from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., and dinner from 2:30 p.m. to 9 p.m.
The Multnomah Falls Visitor Center is open daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
