The picturesque Jewell Falls, with its two main steps and small cascades, are the only natural waterfalls in Portland. They are accessible through the Portland Trail System hiking trails, and you'll quickly forget that you're in the city.

The 'Jewel Falls' is a natural waterfall in Portland's 'Fore River Sanctuary'. The waterfall is located on the 'Portland Trails' network in the nature reserve. At the end of May 2024, the water will only flow as a trickle over the rocks down into the wetland.

A really beautiful idyllic place. But you shouldn't go at low tide. The waterfall is definitely more impressive at high tide.
