Munson Creek Falls

About

Munson Creek Falls is a waterfall in Tillamook County, Oregon, sitting at about 1,214 feet. The nearest town is Pleasant Valley, roughly 2 miles away. Summer is the mildest time to visit. Typical July and August highs reach the upper 60s with lows around 50, based on averages from a nearby weather station in Tillamook. That station sits more than 1,000 feet lower than the falls, so temperatures at the falls run cooler. Paddlers can put in on East Beaver Creek, about 2 miles away, or the Tillamook River a little over 4 miles out. Battle Lake is a hike roughly 4 miles away. For an overnight, Hebo Lake Campground is about 9 miles off.
