The falls are named after the Multnomah tribe, a Native American people who lived in the area.
The falls consist of an upper fall of 542 feet and a lower fall of 69 feet, separated by a short drop.
Benson Bridge, built in 1914, allows visitors to cross between the upper and lower falls for a closer view.
The falls are primarily fed by underground springs from Larch Mountain, ensuring a steady flow year-round.
In winter, the falls can partially freeze, creating a stunning icy spectacle.
