Things To Do
Vista House at Crown Point
It is protected as a state park property known as the Crown Point State Scenic Corridor. The Vista House was built as a rest stop and observatory for travelers on the old Columbia River Gorge Highway and as a memorial to several Oregon pioneers—particularly those who made their way down the Columbia River
Multnomah Falls
At 620 feet (189 m), Multnomah Falls is the tallest waterfall in Oregon. The dramatic two-tiered falls are fed by underground springs from Larch Mountain, and the flow over the falls varies, usually at its highest during winter and spring.
Hood River
It’s the go-to destination for foodies, trekkers, historians and adrenaline junkies. Called the windsurfing capital of the world, Hood River is located at the panoramic crossroads of the Columbia River Gorge and the Cascade Range. It’s chock-full of scenic hiking and mountain biking trails, craft breweries, wineries and farm-to-table bounty. We recommend doing it all.
Hood River Lavender Farms
Hood River Lavender Farms was established in 2003 by a cosmetologist and esthetician of 30 years who worked to create products that were healthy and beneficial for the skin using the healing properties of lavender. For years their farm was a destination for locals and visitors alike to spend some tranquil time among the flowers. In 2017 they moved the farm a quarter mile down the road to the location shared with Stave & Stone Wine Estates where they continue to provide a welcoming and relaxing environment for people to stop and smell the lavender. Visitors are encouraged to explore both the winery and lavender farm and their seasonal retail store chock full of fragrant lavender products and our delightful seasonal lavender soft serve.
