Itinerary

  • Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area

    2 hoursAdmission Ticket Free

  • Bonneville Fish Hatchery

    30 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    Bonneville Hatchery is Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife’s largest hatchery facility and has a diverse fish production program. It is used for adult collection, egg incubation and rearing of Tule fall Chinook, and adult collection and spawning of coho salmon. It is also used for rearing of, summer steelhead, winter steelhead and coho (coho egg incubation occurs at Cascade Hatchery).

  • Multnomah Falls

    30 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    Fed by underground streams that originate miles above on Larch Mountain, this ancient 620 foot (189 m) waterfall is divided into two sections; the upper falls plummets an impressive 542 feet into a pool and again drops 69 feet to form a creek that runs into the Columbia River. Multnomah Falls is the second highest year-round waterfall in the United States and the highest in Oregon, and is Oregon’s number one natural attraction, drawing over 2.5 million visitors a year from around the world. At the base of the waterfall sits the Historic Multnomah Falls Lodge, a full-service day lodge complete with a restaurant, gift shop, snack and espresso bar, and interpretative center.
  • Hood River

    1 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    You will have 1 hour for lunch in Hood River (not included). Hood River brims with diverse food fare, so it won’t be hard to find the most filling farm-to-table bites with the freshest ingredients sourced locally. This destination has hiking, biking, skiing , and windsurfing. While you eat lunch in this charming downtown look out onto the Columbia River and watch the windsurfers seemingly float across the top of the Columbia River, which is the 4th largest river by volume in North America.
  • Rowena Crest Viewpoint

    20 minsAdmission Ticket Free
    Observe the rapid change in climate and landscape as we drive east towards this iconic viewpoint at the top of a massive basalt feature, previously known as Memaloose Castle, but now referred to as Rowena Crest. The Historic Columbia River Highway winds its way up in a series of horseshoe curves and switchbacks designed back in 1915 to allow cars with limited horsepower to climb the 700 feet to the top. We will intimately experience the artistic design of this road as we slowly make our ascent. Equally stunning, you will appreciate the view from Rowena Crest, which reveals a dramatic landscape carved out by the ice age Missoula Floods. With breathtaking views and a delightful horseshoe-shaped road, it is no wonder that Rowena is one of the most photographed viewpoints in Oregon.
