The Tamanawas Falls Trail is located in one of the most glorious parts of Mt. Hood National Forest, and it runs parallel to the Hood River in the majestic Cascade Mountains.
You’ll follow Cold Spring Creek until you reach the falls, winding beneath stately canopies of Douglas fir, mountain hemlock, and red alder trees along the way.
