Myrtle Falls, Mount Rainier National Park

The hike is a little steep bit definitely worth the view. The view of the waterfalls is absolutely mesmerizing. There is a bridge that takes you across the waterfall. Also there’s stairs on the side that lead you to a viewpoint that shows the waterfall from a distance. Plenty of parking near the starting point.

The weather was super nice today!! Always double check weather forecast, last time I came was all foggy, there’s also a rainier mountain cam that you can check the weather with. Didn’t get up to the panorama viewpoint but the waterfall was breath taking😍(but A LOT of people) (Pricing photo is attached in the end) And as we were heading down around 6ish? There was like a couple miles long wait long ∑(ﾟДﾟ)😨so GO EARLY!!

Surreal. Come at 7:30am and there was pretty much no one around. I had the entire waterfall for myself. Best time to visit in the summer: -early morning before 8:30am (you can stay at paradise inn). - evening after 7pm when most people already are leaving for home.

Expect slow, constant incline on way to falls on paved path that is in open (very little/no tree coverage). Little steep steps down to viewing area of falls with no railing & weird step at bottom. It's beautiful from viewing area (small) or on bridge. Can see Mt. Rainier directly behind. Will be busy path/spot people are stopping. Few benches along the way if need to pause. Beautiful views of surrounding area and Mt. Rainier too - definitely recommend!

There was a bit of a wait to get to see the falls. It wasn’t too long even though it was a Sunday. We waited in line for no more than 15 minutes. Definitely worth waiting as the view is spectacular - you get both the falls and the mount. Absolutely gorgeous!
