The Columbia River Gorge is an area of stunning natural beauty. Winding along the Columbia River, with Washington on the northern bank and Oregon on the southern, there are endless surprises around each bend of the road.

The gorge begins just east of Portland and wraps its way along the river towards Hood River. Along the way, small villages, tumbling waterfalls and stunning panoramic river views will beg you to stop and enjoy.
