The loop hike encompassing both the waterfalls in Wahkeena and Multnomah canyons is a favorite.  With the present summer parking permit system in place, it is probably becoming more popular.  That means you have to come early to find a parking spot.  Hike up Wahkeena Canyon and then over to Multnomah - three more waterfalls to discover here.  I have added on a trek out to the Oregon Trails group's Nesika Lodge for the spectacular upriver view.
