Description
Picturesque waterfall which is the destination for a popular hike. Nice and cool in the summer when it's hot other places. Many camping spots to the West.
"The only way to describe Ramona Falls is 'cathedralesque'...what a beautiful spot!" to quote jeffstat in a trip report. There is a large area at the base of the falls in a grove of trees. This is a cool spot in the summer for a bite of lunch. There will probably be some other people there also, but it's a large enough area to not be on top of each other.
If you're backpacking, there are many places to camp on the trail between Ramona Falls and the Sandy River. In the summer it can be pretty busy. People that are hiking around the mountain typically camp out one night at Ramona Falls. But, especially towards the Sandy River you can probably find a spot not on top of others.
