Munson Creek Falls State Natural Site, State natural site in Tillamook County, Oregon, US
The waterfall at Munson Creek Falls cascades 319 feet through multiple tiers within the Oregon Coast Range, surrounded by old-growth forest and native vegetation.
The Western Rivers Conservancy transferred the land surrounding Munson Creek Falls to Oregon Parks and Recreation Department in 1999 with funding from Paul Allen Foundation.
The creek area serves as a critical salmon habitat, where visitors observe the natural spawning cycle during late fall and winter months.
A wide, accessible trail extends for one-quarter mile through the forest to reach the waterfall viewpoint, suitable for visitors of various physical abilities.
The falls stand as the highest waterfall formation in the Oregon Coast Range, featuring distinct seasonal changes with maple trees and trillium flowers.
