Mt. Hood is the highest summit in Oregon, and the fourth highest in the Cascades. It features waterfalls, glaciers, and historic Timberline Lodge, built by local artisans during the Great Depression, and featuring the longest ski season in the US. To the north of Mt. Hood is the Hood River Valley. You will get intimate with this area through a visit to Timberline Lodge on Mt. Hood, fruit stands in the Hood River Valley, downtown Hood River (your opportunity for lunch and/or alcoholic beverages), and breathtaking stops in the eastern and western Columbia River Gorge (Multnomah Falls included). Your expert guide, with formal background in ecology and natural resources, will teach you about the natural and cultural history of the area, as you drive the Mt. Hood and Historic Columbia River Highway Scenic Byways. Pickup and drop-off at your hotel.

  • Mount Hood, Hood River, Oregon, United States
    Mt. Hood is a potentially active stratovolcano, the highest peak in Oregon, and the fourth highest in the Cascades. Not only is it known for its beauty, visible on the skyline of much of northern Oregon and southern Washington, but it is also the most climbed stratovolcano in the Cascades, easily accessible from Timberline Lodge, which is the only ski resort in the US that is open every month of the year. You will spend 1-2 hours at Timberline Lodge, on the mountain, just below the Palmer Glacier.

  • Timberline Lodge, Government Camp, Oregon, United States
    This Works Progress Administration project was dedicated by Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1937. It is one of the most unique, and expansive buildings in the State of Oregon, sitting on Mt. Hood above timberline, for utterly sublime views. You can divide your time among interpretive displays, food & drink venues, hiking in summer and snowplay in winter, as you like. The lodge is a National Historic Landmark, and the only ski resort in the US that is open every month of the year.
    30 minutes
  • Draper Girls Country Farm, Parkdale, Oregon, United States
    Depending on the season, we'll stop at this charming orchard store, where you can buy fresh fruit & preserves, pet the cats and goats, and get a spectacular shot of Mt. Hood, weather permitting.

Highly recommend! My expectations were exceeded. We stopped at 3 waterfalls, Rowena Crest, Hood River for lunch and Timberline Lodge. The snacks were perfect and came in handy. Sam was very knowledgeable as our tour guide!

We have a very good tour with Cher. She was very knowledgeable and informative. We maybe wish we could have stayed longer at Mount Hood. But overall, it was a good experience.

Took this amazing full day tour, we were picked up on exactly on time from our hotel in central Portland by our wonderful guide Cher who went above and beyond to make the excursion truly memorable. She had excellent knowledge of the area and was really engaging throughout the whole experience. As we were a relatively small group she was happy to tailor the day to our various interests and this tour was definitely one of the most enjoyable days of our entire holiday. Would definitely recommend.
