Narada Falls Trail

Short Mount Rainier trail to a broad waterfall dropping below the road to Paradise.

Narada Falls is one of Mount Rainier's easiest waterfall stops, just below the road to Paradise. The trail drops from the parking area to a viewpoint where the Paradise River spreads over a broad lip and falls in a white sheet into the forested gorge below.

It is short, but the path can be wet, icy, or slick depending on season, so treat it as a real trail rather than a roadside photo stop. In late spring and early summer the water volume is especially strong; later in the season the falls are still handsome and much easier to combine with longer Paradise-area hikes.
