The Columbia River Gorge is a breathtaking natural wonder, where 4,000-foot cliffs, ancient forests, blooming wildflower meadows, and the largest concentration of waterfalls in North America come together in stunning harmony.

Spanning 85 miles from Troutdale to Biggs, Oregon, and from Vancouver to Maryhill on the Washington side, the Gorge offers a landscape that inspires awe—and romance—at every turn.

For centuries, people have been captivated by its beauty. Shaped by geological forces over 40 million years, the Gorge remained a hidden gem until 1805, when Lewis and Clark’s expedition revealed the splendor of the Columbia River, the fourth-largest river in the U.S. Native American canoes were later replaced by steamboat journeys from Portland, and in 1922, the completion of the Historic Columbia River Highway opened up this natural wonder to all.

Today, the Gorge is a world-class destination for outdoor adventure and relaxation alike. Whether you prefer chasing waterfalls, hiking scenic trails, kayaking or rafting through rapids, fishing, or skiing on nearby Mt. Hood, the options are endless.

For those who enjoy wine tasting or brewery hopping, the region is home to an array of vineyards and craft breweries.

And the best part? Despite welcoming 650,000 visitors each year, charming towns like Hood River and Stevenson, Washington, have held onto their small-town feel, making it the perfect place to celebrate love—and life—with all of you.

Between the beauty and the amenities, it truly is a gem.
