Shepperd Dell Falls

The Shepperd Dell State Natural Area contains this magnificent waterfall. There is convenient parking on either side of Highway 30 to view this waterfall. The two-tiered waterfalls cascade down cliffs to Young's Creek and finally into the Columbia River. The journey from the parking places to the waterfalls is only around a mile round way.

While this waterfall is not as stunning as others in the vicinity, it is nonetheless breathtaking. The higher falls drop a little over 40 feet, while the lower falls drop only 50 feet. For those who are unable to trek, a bridge near the parking area provides great views of the waterfall. The stone walkway and wall structure are equally as beautiful as the waterfalls. The region is quiet and serene, making it an ideal location for tranquility and reconnecting with nature. Even if the walk is brief, choosing comfortable and dependable shoes is a smart choice.
