Naked Falls is a waterfall and set of swimming holes on the Washougal River in Skamania County. It is on private land, separate from the surrounding Weyerhaeuser land. The landowner has reopened the falls to the public for a fee and requires a parking pass. From the Dougan Falls bridge, follow the gravel extension of the Washougal River Road (signed for Stevenson) about 1.8 miles to where the river comes back near the road. A day-use trail leads down to the falls. The pass covers Naked Falls only, not other falls on private land farther upstream. Camping is by separate reservation only. Follow the owner's rules: no jumping from trees, pack out all litter, and do not remove anything.
