Day 4 - Columbia River Gorge & Multnomah Falls
Take a breath of fresh air and find yourself lost in the nature
that envelops Portland today as we venture to the Columbia River
Gorge and Multnomah Falls. Sights of tree-covered mountains,
sprawling valleys, and wildflowers surround us as we make our way
along the picturesque Columbia River Highway Scenic Byway. See
powerful waterfalls, including Bridal Veil and Latourell, cascading
down the rocks. We arrive at Columbia River Gorge - the largest
National Scenic Area in America - and look over the Columbia River
as it cuts through the Cascade Mountains from excellent viewpoints.
Enjoy Gorge's notable attractions as we move through the area.
Multnomah Falls is a highlight of our excursion. At 620 feet tall,
these falls are some of the most visited in Oregon.
We return to Portland in time to join our Amtrak train to
Eugene, a city known for its connection with art and nature. The
trip takes us south through cities like Oregon City, Salem, and
Albany before arriving in Eugene around dinner time. On arrival,
transfer to the hotel, then take the rest of the evening to
acquaint yourself with this vibrant college town. Overnight
Eugene.
Please Note - For departure Jun 10 we will stay at The Grand
Hotel in Salem.
