Czego oczekiwać
1
Dyrektor Parku
Nasze centralne miejsce spotkań i punkt odbioru! Piękny, miejski park w centrum Downtown Portland.
2
Narodowy obszar widokowy Columbia River Gorge
Wyjedziemy z centrum Portland i pojedziemy na wschód wzdłuż rzeki Columbia do Troutdale, znanej jako Brama do Wąwozu! Dołączymy do pięknej historycznej autostrady Columbia River Highway, pierwszej zaplanowanej malowniczej jezdni w Stanach Zjednoczonych.
3
Dom Visty
Zazwyczaj naszym pierwszym przystankiem w ciągu dnia jest Crown Point Vista House. Ten słynny punkt widokowy znajduje się 733 stóp nad rzeką Columbia, na szczycie strumienia lawy, który przetoczył się przez wąwóz około 14 do 17 milionów lat temu! Znajdziemy tu niesamowite 180-stopniowe widoki na wąwóz Columbia River Gorge i zwiedzimy Vista House. Misternie zaprojektowane obserwatorium i muzeum, Vista House jest wpisane do Krajowego Rejestru miejsc o znaczeniu historycznym.
4
Wodospady Latourell
Z Vista House pojedziemy w głąb Narodowego Obszaru Krajobrazowego Columbia River. Naszym pierwszym wodospadem tego dnia będzie dramatyczny wodospad Latourell, który spada na wysokość 249 stóp nad masywną ścianą z kolumnowego bazaltu. W zależności od sezonu zostanie poprowadzona krótka wędrówka szlakiem o długości ¼ mili, aby uzyskać bliższy widok na wodospady.
5
Wodospady Multnomah
Następnym wodospadem, który odwiedzimy, będzie słynny wodospad Multnomah. Spadający 620 stóp w dwóch głównych stopniach, Multnomah Falls jest najwyższym wodospadem w Oregonie i drugim najwyższym w kraju! Tutaj możemy zwiedzić zabytkowy domek Multnomah Falls (domek z kamienia i drewna w stylu kaskadyjskim zbudowany w 1925 r.), a także sam piękny wodospad Multnomah. Łatwo dostępna platforma widokowa oferuje pełny widok na most Benson, a poza nim spada kaskada.
6
Wylęgarnia Bonneville
Spędzimy około 20 minut na krótkim spacerze po tej imponującej wylęgarni ryb (największej w Oregonie) i centrum widokowym Sturgeon! W centrum widokowym odwiedzimy lokalną sławę: jesiotra „Hermana”. Herman ma ponad 70 lat, 10 stóp długości i 450 funtów!
