• Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area - After meeting you at the starting point, 833 SE Main Street #124, we’ll head out in one of our comfortable vans. The tour all takes place in the Columbia River Gorge, in the waterfall-laden western end of an 80-mile (130-km) canyon.
• Multnomah Falls - Multnomah Falls is the tallest waterfall in the state and one of the most impressive, and most photographed, waterfalls in the U.S. If you’re chasing waterfalls: this is the one many are seeking to catch.
• Latourell Falls - Latourell is the most impressive of the plunge-style waterfalls, tumbling over layers of 15 million-year-old columnar and entablature basalt frosted with lichens and, according to local legend, carries the spirit of a Beaver princess who led a tragic life. At Latourell, you’ll have the opportunity for a longer hike, up to 2 miles or 3 km. Breathe deep: you’ll experience the rich variety of the forest with all its healing power and spiritual truths.
• Vista House - Vista House is currently open limited hours! If it is closed, we will stop to take photos of this architectural icon and see the view.

At the most beautiful rest stop in Oregon, we’ll stop, take a walk to the upper deck (weather permitting), learn about the architectural history, and enjoy what could be the most expensive public bathroom in the Pacific Northwest. We’ll also remember the Wasco people, who found this one of their holy places.

• Portland Women’s Forum State Scenic Viewpoint - View an expansive vista of the Columbia River Gorge, take photos, and hear the story of who was here before us. We’ll also tell you how the waterfalls were created. Due to road closures we sometimes replace this stop with an alternative.
• Bridal Veil Falls State Park - This hidden waterfall is one of the state’s most visited and most romantic. A 2/3 mile, 1km hike takes us down to the gorgeous spot that we believe is a genuine fairy land. Due to weather or traffic conditions or road closures, this waterfall is sometimes replaced with an alternative!
