Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area

Road-tripping Oregon is truly a Bucketlist item for outdoor lovers! Wether you want to explore the Oregon Coast or hike the waterfalls of the Columbia River Gorge, check out my guide of all the must-see places around Oregon to plan your trip!

I created this guide for the Airbnb "Hillside Getaway" (link below) with food and outdoor enthusiasts in mind and those wanting to experience the cultural side of Portland. Although my childhood hometown has changed a lot over the years, Portland is still the vibrant, artsy, cultured city I've always known. The "Rose City" has so much to offer—a great food and music scene, the outdoors, and an independent spirit—surrounded by forests and set between two rivers, the peaks of the Cascades, and the Pacific Ocean. This environmentally conscious city has a good rail system with miles of bike paths and walking trails. Virtual explorers and trip planners alike, explore Portland with this interactive guide. Check out what to SEE + DO, places to DRIVE + RIDE, and where to EAT + DRINK around this river city in the northwestern corner of Oregon. This list is far from exhausted and will continue to expand.
