Lewis River Falls — Thursday, Jul. 13, 2023

Southwest Washington > Lewis River Region

Permit for day use lot on Thursday, arrived at 12PM

Road: Entirely paved if heading from Cougar except for 1 mile section of gravel road ~3 miles out from the Day Use/Camping area. Paved road can be uneven/rough at times but is clearly marked with white spray paint for the affected area and reflected pole to the right of the road. Drove my mini cooper and had no issues. 

Trail: well maintained and shaded. The detour from lower to middle falls is ~1/4 mile to the parking lot. Signage to the right to continue to upper and middle falls. I did continue past upper falls to Taitnapum Falls but would not recommend the add on. The views are minimal for the extra mile. 

All in all great place to go for a swim and hike beneath shade of the old growth.
