Metlako Falls, Waterfall in Columbia River Gorge, Oregon, United States.

Metlako Falls is a punchbowl waterfall on Eagle Creek in the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area, Hood River County, Oregon. It is the furthest downstream of the major falls on the creek and drops 31 meters (101 ft), though hikers have measured it anywhere from 30 to 46 m. The creek pours through a narrow opening into a pool below.

Metlako Falls was discovered and named in 1915 by a committee of the Mazamas, a mountaineering organization, after Metlako, the Indian goddess of salmon. The name likely refers to the falls being the upstream limit for salmon spawning in Eagle Creek. A landslide at the end of 2016 destroyed the official viewpoint, and the 2017 Eagle Creek Fire burned trees around the waterfall.

The name comes from Metlako, the Native American goddess of salmon, chosen by the Mazamas committee that named the falls in 1915. The choice reflects the fact that the falls are the upstream limit for salmon spawning on Eagle Creek.

The waterfall can be viewed from the Eagle Creek Trail, with the best visiting time between spring and fall when the paths are more accessible. The original viewing platform is no longer available, but the hiking trail still offers good sightlines.

The 2016 landslide destroyed the official viewpoint, so the classic straight-on view of the falls is no longer possible. After the 2017 Eagle Creek Fire burned the surrounding trees, the top of Metlako Falls became visible from the trail. Local hikers asked the Forest Service for an alternative viewpoint in spring 2022, but work had not started.
