You will see signs to park.
Take Exit 35 to get to WATERFALL ALLEY
It is called the Old Historic Highway.
Horse Tail Falls is wonderful because you don't have to hike it is just right there. A little further down historic highway… Is Onie onto Falls that you also might enjoy getting out and taking a picture there. I'm not too familiar with that one though. Going on down waterfall Allie the next stop will be Multnomah Falls... It is even a beautiful view just to walk up the first few flight of stairs and take a picture by the Rock wall. If you go little further you will get to the bridge and that is always a wonderful picture.
Other trails such as Triple Falls, Angel and Devil's Rest.
Wakeena falls is the next Falls to explore and see going west on the historic highway. You can hike up Wakeena Falls and hike over to the top of Multnomah Falls to hike down it. It is my favorite one to hike.
If you continue to go west you will get to the little town called Bridal veil. Many couples mail their invitations from this small little town. Going west on 84 is another way to get into Portland if you decide to hike first and then go to Portland.
