Sahalie Falls Viewpoint is a simple roadside stop on the Hood River Ranger District where you can take in Sahalie Falls without leaving the road. There’s no signage and nothing in the way of facilities here, just the view of the falls and a spot to pull over for scenery.

From Hood River, head south on Highway 35 to the Hood River Meadows turnoff, which comes about a mile before the Mt. Hood Meadows ski area. Follow that road to a gravel parking area. Space along the shoulder of Forest Road 3555 is limited, and there’s no restroom or drinking water, so plan accordingly.
