Portland follows the Willamette River, with the Columbia to its north and Mount Hood on the eastern horizon. Begin downtown at Powell’s City of Books, a landmark independent bookstore spanning an entire city block. Visit the Japanese American Historical Plaza beside the waterfront, or head to Washington Park’s International Rose Test Garden. Food carts, craft breweries and seasonal produce give the city its distinctive taste. Allow time for the Columbia River Gorge, whose waterfalls and trails lie east of town.
The Dalles stands on the Columbia River at the eastern gateway to the Columbia River Gorge. Celilo Falls nearby drew Indigenous peoples for generations to fish and trade. The falls disappeared beneath the reservoir after The Dalles Dam was completed in 1957. Walk the historic downtown and visit local museums for a closer look at the town’s past.
Kalama, Washington, sits on the Columbia River, where forested hills frame a working waterfront. The town grew around the Northern Pacific Railroad in the 1870s, and its railway roots remain part of the story. At Marine Park, stroll the riverfront and see the towering carved totem pole. Nearby, the Kalama Heritage Center traces local history. Portland lies about 35 miles south, making Kalama a quieter gateway to the region.
