Ramona Falls, Waterfall trail in Mount Hood National Forest, Oregon, United States.
The 120-foot Ramona Falls splits into multiple streams as water cascades over basalt rock formations, creating a natural wall of flowing water patterns.
Native American tribes inhabited the Mount Hood region before European settlement, considering the falls and surrounding wilderness an important natural landmark.
The waterfall received its name from the character in Helen Hunt Jackson's 1884 novel 'Ramona', which addressed Native American rights in California.
The 7.1-mile loop trail requires a Northwest Forest Pass, self-issued wilderness permit, and careful planning for the Sandy River crossing.
The falls display different water volumes throughout seasons, with peak flow during spring snowmelt from Mount Hood's glaciers.
