Overview

Join us as we journey along a historic highway that stands as a testament to craftsmanship and ingenuity. We'll take in magnificent views, including at Vista House on Crown Point, with its stunning architecture. Experience the awe-inspiring Multnomah Falls, where a double cascade of water invites you to feel the mist on your skin. Cross the stone bridge for an unforgettable view of Oregon's "Rhine Valley." Discover the rustic charm of a historic inn (100 years old!), a gift shop, and visitor center, nestled in the towering conifers. Then to Latourell Falls, where water plunges past a backdrop of cloud basalt in a stunning display of nature's power. Additional waterfalls and viewpoints will be chosen, each showcasing its unique character, from the vigorous lash of a horse tail to the gentle spread of a bridal veil. Throughout this journey, your knowledgeable tour guide will enrich your experience with accounts, legends, and insights into the region's history and natural wonders.
