The museum is free the first Thursday of every month. Free tickets must be reserved before hand, up to one week prior.
Tree covered 4-mile trail network for a quick walk/hike.
Multnomah Falls is a scenic spot 30 min outside of Portland. Optional 1 mile hike to the top of the falls, or a 5 mile loop between Multnomah Falls and Wahkeena Falls. Timed entry permits are required 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. daily and can be purchased 14 days in advance. Nearby waterfalls (Wahkeena Falls, Horsetail falls) are other options that do not require a permit, but parking is limited and are highly congested in the summer months, so plan accordingly!
Beautiful views of the city and Mt. Hood
