Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area: A Complete Guide to Hiking & Camping
After several trips to the Columbia River Gorge — most recently camping at Wyeth and finally hiking Eagle Creek to Tunnel Falls — here's my running guide to the hikes, waterfalls, and campgrounds worth building a trip around.
Silver Falls State Park
Take a weekend getaway trip down to Silver Falls State Park. It is located 4.5 hours from Seattle and only a little over an hour away from Portland. Hike the Trail of Ten Falls to see ten distinct waterfalls through an old grown lush forest.
Eastern Oregon
Only have 1.5 days in Eastern Oregon - camp with sheep and sleep under the stars at this camp in Lexington, Oregon. Visit the iconic Painted Hills known as one of the seven wonders in Oregon State. Drive the Journey Through Time Scenic Byway to learn about the rich history of the region.
