Full Day Mount Hood and Columbia Gorge Tour
Cost: $50.00Tour Length: Full Day
Activity Level: Moderate
Treat yourself to a scenic wonderland as you enjoy one of the most outstanding one day excursions in America. Don't forget to bring your camera and plenty of film. Mt. Hood dominates the horizon as you leave the valley and enter the forest covered slopes of the Cascade Mountains. You'll follow the historic "Barlow Trail" to Government Camp. It is now just a few miles to Timberline Lodge at the 6,000 foot level of Oregon's highest mountain peak. You'll have time to photograph the sweeping horizon - wide vistas of forest, lakes and snow-mantled peaks. Next, depart Mt. Hood for the famous apple and pear orchards of the picturesque Hood River Valley. Next is graceful Multnomah Falls, cascading in a feathery plume 670 feet to the gorge floor. Then follow the old highway to Crown Point, where from high above the mighty river you are treated to a 35-mile long panoramic view. Return to Portland at the conclusion of your tour.
