We wanted to hit some short waterfall hikes that we hadn't done before our way home. Wahclella Falls (127 ft) is one that was recommended to us. It is off of I-84 near Bonneville Dam.
This is a 1.8 mile hike with only 350 ft of elevation gain. The hike starts in the woods with a gentle upgrade following Tanner Creek.The trail soon passes Munra Falls (68 ft).
There were lots of wildflowers along the river trail.
At 0.7 miles, the trail splits into a loop going pass the falls. I recommend taking the lower trail to the right first, this will allow you to walk with the falls in view in front of you.
I like the small cascades in the creek.

Shortly before the falls, the trail goes under a large rocky ledge.
