Splash or soak in the Skamania Lodge indoor pool and incredible outdoor hot tub.
Multnomah Falls
This 620-foot two-tier waterfall is just a short walk from the parking lot, but be sure to take the short trail up to Benson Bridge for a truly breathtaking view. For a real challenge, hike up to the Multnomah Falls Upper Viewpoint. On a hot day — or after a steep hike — it’s refreshing to feel the mist coming off the waterfall.
Hood River
The town of Hood River is a popular stop for many visitors to the Columbia River Gorge. Located on the Columbia River, Hood River offers plenty of shopping and dining to break up a day of outdoor exploration. Whether you’re looking for books, wine, or outdoor gear, the Historic Downtown District has it all. Be sure to check out all of the windsurfers on the river!

Hiking and Waterfalls
There are so many hikes to choose from! If you want something easy, hike the Latourell Falls Trail or Dry Creek Falls. If you want more of a challenge, check out Angel's Rest or Dog Mountain. One of our personal favorites is Wahclella Falls :) Just to name some of the most popular Columbia River Gorge waterfalls: Latourell Falls, Bridal Veil Falls, Horsetail Falls, and Wahkeena Falls. There are plenty of others too, but these are the most convenient roadside falls off of Highway 30.
