About this place
Bridal Veil Falls is a beautiful waterfall located right off the Columbia River Gorge Highway just east of Portland, Oregon. The trail to the waterfall is relatively short at less than one mile roundtrip. Plan for 20 minutes of trail time to stop and take in the falls.
The trailhead for this short hike is right off of the Columbia River Highway just west of Multnomah Falls. You can't miss the parking lot for it; there is a sign for Bridal Veil and the parking lot is visible from the road.
The hike is only 0.6 miles and has hardly any elevation gain (70 feet). The trail is well traveled and is definitely good for families. The hike may not be much, but it does go through some pretty woods and crosses a bridge over the stream. The waterfall is a beautiful 2 tiered falls. You can view the falls from the observation deck or take a small path to the big rock in front of the falls.
This is a good hike to tack onto the end of a trip to the Columbia River Gorge as it's on the way back to Portland.
