Millions of people visit the Columbia River Gorge each year, and one of the most popular stops and view points is at Crown Point. On this tour, we fly past this popular landmark offering a unique vantage point of the cliffs that the Vista House sits atop.

Latourell Falls is a waterfall along the Columbia River Gorge in the U.S. state of Oregon, within Guy W. Talbot State Park. The Historic Columbia River Highway passes nearby, and at certain locations the Lower falls are visible from the road. From the air, it’s all visible.

Multnomah Falls
Multnomah Falls is the most visited natural recreation site in the Pacific Northwest with more than 2 million stopping by each year to take in the views! Fed by underground springs from Larch Mountain, the flow over the falls varies, but is usually highest during winter and spring.

Really fun Portland activity and very affordable. We drove by the waterfalls before we did our tour and then seeing them from the airplane was cool. Would defintiely do this again.

This was a great experience for me and my family. We took the tour of the Columbia Gorge and saw all of the waterfalls. My kids who are 5 and 9 loved flying in the airplane and looking out the windows. The customer service here was top notch and everybody we interacted with was very friendly and helpful. We saw other tours in Portland but the price was significantly more for the same thing, and I can’t imagine it being better than what Envi offers. From the moment you walk in the door, they have put a lot of thought into the entire experience making you feel very comfortable and excited to go flying. Highly recommend for anyone. This was great.

Thank you Nick! Glad you and your family had a great time flying with us! The flight in the gorge is a favorite for many and checking out Multnomah Falls from the airplane is a totally unique experience. Thank you for choosing to experience it with us!

We LOVED seeing the gorge from above. Such a beautiful & unique experience being able to fly with Envi! We've been visiting the gorge for over 12 years but this was a breathtaking new perspective. Don't let the fall + winter weather keep you away! We're already planning our next trip once the leaves start to turn. The Envi crew is knowledgable and we felt totally safe. CANNOT wait to get up in the air again!

Thanks Laura! We agree, the fall and winter weather shouldn't be a deterrent as the gorge is a totally different place to be in this time of year and maybe even more beautiful! Look forward to flying with you again in the future!
