Sightseeing

One of the US' major geographic wonders. For a nice drive, head east on WA 14. Check out the viewpoint at Cape Horn, Beacon Rock (you can hike to the top), and the Columbia Gorge Interpretive Center in Stevenson. Then cross over the river at the Bridge of the Gods, and drive back on I-84 or old Highway 30. Don't miss Multnomah Falls and the Vista Point.

If you have an afternoon, this is a fun place for children. Take the Max from Delta Park, change in downtown Portland and alight at the zoo. No driving or parking hassles! If you play Pokemon Go, this is a fabulous place - lots of unusual creatures and plenty of Pokestops.
