Rejseplan
Vores centrale mødested og afhentningspunkt! En smuk bypark midt i Downtown Portland.
Vi tager af sted fra centrum af Portland og kører østpå langs Columbia River til Troutdale, kendt som Gateway to the Gorge! Vi slutter os til den smukke Historic Columbia River Highway, den første planlagte naturskønne vejbane i USA.
Typisk er vores første stop for dagen Crown Point Vista House. Denne berømte overse sidder 733 fod over Columbia River, oven på resterne af et lavastrømme, der fejede gennem kløften omkring 14-17 millioner år siden! Her finder vi fantastiske 180 graders udsigt over Columbia River Gorge og udforske Vista House. Et intrikat designet observatorium og museum er Vista House noteret på National Register of Historic Places.
Fra Vista House vil vi køre dybere ind i Columbia River National Scenic Area. Vores første vandfald for dagen er den dramatiske Latourell Falls, der falder 249 meter over en massiv mur af columnar basalt. Afhængigt af sæsonen, vil en kort ¼ mile trail vandring blive ført for at få et nærmere billede af faldet.
Det næste vandfald, vi vil besøge, er de berømte Multnomah Falls. Blomstrende 620 fod i to store trin, Multnomah Falls er det højeste vandfald i Oregon og næsthøjeste i nationen! Her kan vi udforske Multnomah Falls Historic Lodge (en Cascadian-stil sten og tømmerhytte indbygget i 1925) samt de smukke Multnomah Falls selv. Den let tilgængelige synsplatform giver en fuld visning af Benson Bridge og cascading falls ud over det.
Vi vil bruge omkring 10 minutter på at nyde denne oversete perle lige ud for den historiske motorvej!
Vi slutter vores tur tilbage på Director Park, vores centrale drop off placering i hjertet af Downtown Portland.

Such a great experience. Highly recommend this tour. Got to see beautiful waterfalls and scenery. Our guide was very nice and knowledgeable.
You will not appreciate the wonder of the Columbia River Gorge without a tour. You'll learn all about how the gorge was formed, geology, history, plant life, Portland culture, and so much more on this tour. The scenery of course is unbelievable! Well worth the cost.
Patrick was amazing and knowledgeable.
This was a fantastic tour! Andy our tour guide was very knowledgeable, accommodating and friendly. We highly recommend
Guide was very personable and informative. We moved efficiently from site to site with appropriate guidance and info about each place. Don’t be afraid to book and go solo. There will be others there alone and you will become at ease quickly. This was an excellent tour that is worth your time if you enjoy seeing nature’s beauty. Wear comfortable shoes as some waterfalls require a small hike.
Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Aaron was more than a guide. He was a history, geology and biology teacher as well.
This was a fantastic tour! It was a great way to see multiple water falls in a relatively short amount of time. Our tour guide was incredibly informative and friendly. He shared the geological and cultural history of the valley along the drive time. My son (18) and I greatly enjoyed the whole experience.
Lot’s of fun! Easy hikes! Our guide was knowledgeable and very nice. She was also a safe driver. Recommend for sure!
