40 min drive · Benson Bridge · summer parking permit
Easy. ~40 minutes east of Portland (PDX) on I-84 - rent a car. No fee for the falls, though summer parking may need a timed permit. The lower viewpoint and Benson Bridge are a short paved walk; a steeper trail climbs to the top. Late spring for flow, autumn for colour. Arrive early - it's popular.
