The Best Places to Camp on Mount Hood
Mount Hood, Oregon's tallest mountain at 11,239 feet, can be seen 100 miles in each direction on a clear day. The dormant stratovolcano is home to nearly year-round skiing and 812 miles of recreational trails in the 1.1 million-acre Mt. Hood National Forest.
The Mount Hood territory boasts over 2,000 campsites from primitive backpack-accessible hideaways to dispersed camping options to lakefront sites with uninterrupted views of the mountain. Here is a handful of our favorites.
Some are lakeside, some are creekside or riverside, and they all have fantastic access to hiking and biking trails. So, whether you like to paddle, plod, or pedal, there’s something for everyone at all of these campsites.
And if none of these strike your fancy, you have over 1,994 others to choose from.
Mt. Hood Camping: Our Favorite Spots
Trillium lake.
Trillium Lake Campground is a magnet for all kinds of outdoor recreation, including boating, fishing, hiking, mountain biking, and skiing. Located 40 miles from Portland, and only 4 miles outside of the ski town of Government Camp, it's an easy spot for a quick getaway.
Reservations open up 6 months in advance, and the U.S. Forest Service always holds back a handful of sites available on a first-come, first-served basis.
- Location : Outside of Government Camp
- Number of sites : 64
- Site fees : $26/night for a single site, $52/night for a double site
- Other fees : $8 for each extra car
- Amenities : Vault toilets, drinking water, and a reservable amphitheater
- Reservation s: recr eation.gov , (877) 444-6777
Lost Lake Resort and Campground
One of the few natural lakes in the Mt. Hood National Forest, the water is so clear I once dove down and rescued a lost $5 bill resting at the bottom of the lake that I spotted from my paddleboard. While the watersports get all the attention, there are over 100 miles of nearby trails including an easy favorite, the Lakeshore Trail, that circles the lake.
Most sites are reservable 6 months ahead and there are a handful of first-come, first-served spots.
Pro tip: to get one of those non-reservable spots, try to get to Lost Lake by 11 a.m. and scout out which folks are getting ready to leave by the noon checkout time so you can pounce on their spot as soon as they pull out.
- Location : 25 miles southwest of Hood River, 87 miles east of Portland
- Number of sites : 148
- Site fees : $41-46 for tent sites, $71-80 for group sites
- Other fees : $6 for a 15-minute shower, $15 for an extra car
- Amenities : Public boat launch, 2 miles of handicap accessible trails, SUP and kayak rentals, and an onsite camp store.
- Reservations : recreation.gov , (877) 444-6777
Milo McIver State Park
The expansive 950-acre Milo McIver State Park is densely wooded and provides plenty of privacy, even on the main campsite loop. Fishing, kayaking, and paddleboarding are all part of the fun, either on the Clackamas River that flows alongside the park or on the nearby Estacada Lake.
Milo McIver State Park boasts one of the best 27-hole disc golf courses in the region and has the distinction of being the site of the only government-funded music festival back in 1970. Located a short 45-minute drive from Portland, making a reservation is a must for this popular state park.
- Location : 24 miles southeast of Portland
- Number of sites : 53 (44 electrical sites, 9 tent sites)
- Site fees : $26-47 for electrical sites; $17-24 for tent sites
- Other fees : $8 reservation fee
- Amenities : Disc golf course, dog park, volleyball court, equestrian, and hiking trails
- Reservations : Oregon State Parks , (800) 452-5687
A secret gem in the Mt. Hood National Forest is Frog Lake Campground . It’s named after the schools of tadpoles that are hatched in the small lake each summer and grow into an army of frogs by August. Frog Lake could have also been named “Butterfly Lake” after the kaleidoscope of butterflies that arrive in late spring.
Nonmotorized boats are welcome on Frog Lake, and visitors can access a section of the Pacific Crest Trail from the Frog Lake Sno Park lot.
- Location : 64 miles east of Portland, 12 miles east of Government Camp
- Number of sites : 32
- Site fees : $26 for a single site
- Other fees : $10 for each extra car, $2 additional fees for holidays
- Amenities : Vault toilets, fire rings
- Reservations : reservations.gov , 877-444-6777
Timothy Lake
Timothy Lake was created in 1956 when Portland General Electric dammed the west fork of the Clackamas River to help regulate the flow. PGE now manages Timothy Lake in tandem with the U.S. Forest Service. There are over 200 campsites in seven campgrounds along the 1,500-acre lake.
Hikers and mountain bikers alike enjoy the 15-mile bike loop around the lake (it's only 13 miles on foot). New in 2023, PGE is holding back a handful of sites in each campground for reservations 2 weeks in advance rather than only making reservations available 6 months ahead of time.
My favorite camping spot is the Hoodview campground, due to the breathtaking view of Mt. Hood, but really all the campgrounds around the lake are stunning. Another favorite is the non-reservable walk-in, boat-in Meditation Point. It's about a mile walk into these primitive and quiet campsites.
Timothy Lake also offers 40 dispersed campsites that have no fee and no services and are a little hard to find, as they don't tend to be well-marked.
- Location : 80 miles southeast of Portland
- Number of sites : 200 in 7 campgrounds
- Site fees : $25 for single sites, $52 for double sites, $10 for Meditation Point
- Other fees : $10 for an extra car, $2 additional on holidays
- Amenities : Vault toilets, fire rings, BBQ grills, drinkable water
- Reservations : reservation.gov , (877) 444-6777
Fifteenmile Campground
Timing is everything to snag one of the three wonderful sites along Fifteenmile Creek. The first-come, first-served Fifteenmile Campground sites are shaded and private.
Hikers and bikers converge on this area to enjoy the outside edge of the Badger Creek Wilderness and the east side of Mt. Hood where there are tons of camping, miles of hiking, and mountain biking trails among the ponderosa pines and Oregon white oak trees.
- Location : 90 miles southeast of Portland, 40 miles south of Hood River
- Number of sites : 3
- Site fees : $10
- Amenities : Vault toilet
- No reservations are available for Fifteenmile Campground. It's best to arrive midweek during the summer or on Sunday afternoon to grab one of the sites.

Mount Hood, located about 50 miles east of Portland, Oregon, is one of the most climbed glaciated peaks in North America (#2 in the world behind Japan's Fuji-san , according to some). While it last erupted in 1907 and still has active fumaroles, it is now considered a dormant volcano. Its relatively low altitude (compared to Rainier and Shasta ), easy approach, and short hiking/climbing distance (see South Side Route below) makes it much more popular among less experienced climbers. These climbers, lacking experience, and severe weather, which can move in quickly, account for most accidents. Skiers can descend directly from the summit. Dogs are permitted and frequently make the summit.
The South Side Route, which begins at the 5,800' Timberline Lodge parking area, is the shortest (< 3 miles) and most popular route to the summit. Above the the Palmer ski lift there are 3 variations of this route, the most popular of which is the Hogsback / Pearly Gates route. The Hogsback / Old Crater variation is used when the Pearly Gates are congested while climbers looking for more of a challenge can use the West Crater Rim variation.
CLIMBING CONSIDERATIONS
- While Mount Hood has reportedly been summited by a woman in high heels, this does not discount the need for climbing experience on this mountain. An ice axe and crampons should be considered mandatory for most climbers, with climbing helmets being a popular addition, especially higher up.
- On warm days it is recommended you get an early start (which is closer to midnight than sunrise), to be out of rockfall areas by 10am.
- Due to the loose rock, climbers are urged to tread lightly, staying on the snow and ice while climbing and not dislodging any rock.
- Check and be wary of the summit cornice, especially during the winter and early spring.
- Do not linger around the fumaroles which create oxygen voids that have asphyxiated (suffocated) unsuspecting climbers.
- Routes Overview
Below is a brief routes overview with routes arranged in a counter clockwise order from the south.
Any information regarding filling in this table is highly appreciated. Empty fields indicate unknown or missing information, not that there is no rating or information, e.g. an empty difficulty rating should not automatically be taken to mean an easy route.
Special thanks to Martin Cash for many additions to this table.
- Getting There
SOUTH SIDE (AKA TIMBERLINE LODGE) APPROACH: Take US Highway 26 (US-26) towards Government Camp, turning north at the well-signed Timberline Lodge access road about a half-mile east of Government Camp. Follow this well paved road north 5 miles to the Timberline Lodge where year-round skiing and snowboarding (and restaurants) are available. In Portland, you can connect with US-26 East towards Government Camp on I-5 or I-205.
COOPER SPUR APPROACH: Take OR SR-35 to the Polallie Campground (about 20 miles south from Hood River or about 18 miles north from the US-26 / SR-35 junction) and head west on Forest Service Road 3512 to the trailhead at the Tilly Jane Campground, passing the Cooper Spur campground (after which the road is no longer paved). In the winter there is a marked ski trail from the ski area to Cooper Spur, just beyond Tilly Jane.
WILDERNESS PERMIT (MANDATORY): Climbing the summit means entering the Mount Hood Wilderness Area which requires a free, non-quota, self-issued wilderness permit. These are available at the Timberline day lodge "Climbers' Cave" and all trailheads. The Climbers' Cave does not have a door and is thus open year round, 24 x 7.
CLIMBERS' REGISTRATION FORM (OPTIONAL): This is a general form stating the people in your party, planned route, climbing dates and emergency contact info. However, if you don't come back on your stated date, don't depend on this form to initiate a search for you. For South Side routes, this is also available in the Timberline Climbers' Cave.
BLUE BAG(S) (OPTIONAL): Solid bodily wastes are supposed to be disposed of via plastic "blue bags" available at the Timberline Climber's Cave. These are generally not needed on day hikes up the South Side (hold it option ;-). The Climbers' Cave has a 24 x 7 restroom.
EMERGENCY LOCATOR TRANSMITTERS (OPTIONAL): There is a $500 fine if a rescue effort is launched for someone without a cell phone or Mountain Locator Unit (MLU). A MLU allows the county sheriff or rescue groups to pinpoint a climber's exact location which can drastically reduce rescue time and resources. Two things are required for a MLU to work: (1) the lost climber must have it and activate it; (2) the county sheriff must be notified of the lost climber (call 911) to activate their receiving equipment. MLUs are available for rent at the following locations, with only Mount Hood Inn beling local to the mountain:
- Mountain Shop , 1510 NE 37th Ave., Portland, OR (503) 288-6768
- OMC , 2975 NE Sandy Blvd., Portland, OR (503) 227-1038, (800) 538-3604
- REI , 1405 NW Johnson St., Portland, OR (503) 221-1938
- REI , 7410 SW Bridgeport, Tigard, OR (503) 624-8600
- When To Climb and Ski
Climbing and skiing on Mount Hood is most popular most from May to Mid-July, which is after avalanche season but before crevasses and rockfall become serious. Climbing is possible during other times of the year, however, use your judgement. The CascadeClimbers.com Oregon Cascades discussion board is a good resource, especially for off season route conditions.

- Timberline Mountain Guides (541) 312-9242 - Call or email for current route and conditions info.
SOUTH SIDE ROUTES: There are three popular places to camp: (1) on the Palmer Glacier above the ski lift generally next to the exposed rocks above the lift but below Crater Rock, (2) in the Timberline Lodge ski area parking lot where tents are not allowed but sleeping in your car is, and (3) in the National Forest below the lodge by taking the first left after turning on to the Timberline access road from US-26. Camping on the summit is also allowed but not all that popular. There are no fees or registration required for any of the options above.

The Timberline Resort Shuttle operates daily during the winter season with service between Summit Pass in Government Camp and Timberline's Wy'East Day Lodge. Riding the shuttle is free for Timberline and Fusion season pass holders and Timberline online lift ticket holders. The shuttle offers continuous circulation - we anticipate one lap hourly but recognize factors such as road and crowd conditions will influence timing.
![trip check mt hood Driving](https://www.timberlinelodge.com/images/1_col/GETTINGHERE_1C_TIPS-993-1506555480.jpg)
Travelers should expect snow and ice covered roads as they travel over mountain passes. People who are unprepared for mountain travel can jeopardize their safety and the safety of others on the road. Here are some reminders to ensure everyone gets to where they are going safely:
Consider transit: Visit Mt Hood Express to learn about park and rides and schedules.
Dress for the weather: Dress in warm layers and limit exposed skin.
Drive for the conditions of the road: Adjust your speed to the road conditions.
Use chains and traction tires: When chains are required, use the next chain up area to put on your tire chains. Do not stop in highway to put on chains. Chain up areas and highway shoulders are not for recreation.
Don’t park your vehicle along the highway: abandoned or parked vehicles along the highway will be towed.
Consider your travel time: Mountain passes see the highest number of vehicles during the winter break and on weekends.
Know Before You Go: Visit TripCheck or call 511.

PARKING LOTS There are three parking lots at Timberline Lodge. Up by the main lodge, the lot is reserved for hotel guests. The two lower lots (Main Lot and Salmon River Lot) are for day visitors and employees. During the busy winter season on weekends, our parking lots fill up quickly with ski area guests. We recommend carpooling and arriving early or taking advantage of the Timberline Resort Shuttle (see above). PARKING PERMITS If you’re driving your own vehicle to Timberline, remember that Sno-Park Permits are required for all state-maintained parking areas in recreational areas November 1 – April 30. The funds raised by these sales supplement the snow removal budgets for these areas. All Timberline parking is maintained by the state, and therefore requires Sno-Park Permits. They are available for 1 day, 3 days, and for a full season. Day visitors during the winter season can purchase Sno-Park Permits at any open ticket window or inside the Wy’East Day Lodge at the Guest Services Desk. They are also available at many local businesses on the way to the mountain.
![trip check mt hood ELECTRIC CAR CHARGIN IN THE SNOW](https://www.timberlinelodge.com/images/1_col/GETTINGHERE_1C_EVCHARGING-3590-1701969027.jpg)
Timberline has six EV charging stations in the Main Lot in front of the Wy'East Day Lodge. The EV parking spaces may be used by all Timberline guests, including paying customers and non-paying visitors.
- 0.45¢ per kWh
- 4-hour max stay
- Vehicle must attempt to move to a non-EV spot when possible or seek the help of a parking lot attendant
- 45-minute grace period after each 4-hour stay
- After 45-minute grace period expires, a $5/hr idle fee will incur
- With a FLO account, EV drivers can access stations on BC Hydro EV, ChargePoint, eCharge Network, the Electric Circuit, and Shell Recharge. Visit www.flo.com for more information.
The per-kWh rate and stall fee are subject to change at the discretion of ski area management.

Cross Sandy River to see stunning Ramona Falls in Mount Hood National Forest
![trip check mt hood Portrait of Elliott Deins](https://www.statesmanjournal.com/gcdn/authoring/authoring-images/2024/07/02/PSAL/74282331007-240702-elliot-headshot.jpg?crop=2705,2706,x0,y338&width=48&height=48&format=pjpg&auto=webp)
Whether crossing a makeshift log bridge or wading through a glacially-fed river, a hike to Ramona Falls requires just a little bit extra.
Located east of Portland in Mount Hood National Forest, the popular trail requires the ability to hike 8 miles, a preferably high clearance vehicle and a little bit of balance while crossing logs.
The 8-mile lollipop loop trail features a towering 120-foot waterfall, views of the monstrous west face of Mount Hood, a portion of the Pacific Crest Trail and a river crossing that has the potential to get gnarly if not taken seriously.
Besides the water hazard, there’s a gain of 1,135 feet in elevation for this moderately difficult but rewarding hike through the Mount Hood Wilderness.
Getting started
The drive takes two hours from Salem and three from Eugene to Sandy River Trailhead in the Mount Hood National Forest.
Getting to the trailhead early is a good practice for any hike, but especially Ramona Falls. Early arrival means beating the heat, crossing a calmer river, and getting a spot at the Sandy River Trailhead parking lot. The parking lot is huge, able to fit around 50 vehicles. It gets busy later in the day, serving as the starting point for a plethora of popular trails.
The trail begins on the southern corner of the parking lot. Follow it along the south bank of the Sandy River, which can be heard more often than seen. About a mile into the hike there is a box to fill out a free, self-issuedwilderness permit.
2 ways of crossing the Sandy River
After hiking along the high banks of the Sandy River for a mile and half, it will come time to cross the river. Mount Hood, the source of the gray blue glacial waters, sets the backdrop as hikers attempt to traverse the river.
A footbridge over the Sandy River was washed out by a storm and flash flood a decade ago, causing one fatality and stranding 23 other hikers on the far side of the river.
Hikers are now left with two methods of crossing: finding a log to walk across, like an Olympian on the balance beam, or wade across the glacial stream.
Of the 15 hikers I watched cross the river, not one decided to dawn water shoes and walk through the shin-deep river. Eric Olinghouse, who hikes the Ramona Falls Loop annually, said he’s never seen anyone walk across the river.
“No one wants to do that,” Olinghouse said about wading across the river. “I’ve done other hikes around Mount Hood where I had to walk through water that came up to my crotch. I would much rather find a log.”
Crossing any kind of moving water can be dangerous and requires caution.
There are two sets of logs, up and downstream of the trail, which were jammed by the flowing river into a position to make crossing possible.
Much like the footbridge, the logs can be washed away and the whole riverscape changed with a large storm. Always check the weather status before embarking and do not attempt to cross if there are storms predicted.
“People often use downed logs to cross the streams,” Mount Hood National Forest spokeswoman Heather Ibsen said, “but stream conditions are dynamic. Logs shift and decompose over time. Currently, the big log that a lot of people walk across is deteriorating some, and other logs have been washed away that were previously helpful to cross.”
Advice for crossing via log:
- Scout up and down the river for the best option.
- Try to find a log where you can have at least three points of contact while crossing rather than relying on balancing like a tight rope walker.
- Be as sure as you can that the log will stay secured as you cross and cross one person at a time to limit the weight the log has to bear.
- No waterfall view is worth your life, so if it’s too sketchy, turn around.
Seeing Ramona Falls
A quarter mile after crossing the river, hikers must choose their own destiny as the trail splits into north or south options. I chose north. The trail is a loop, so it’s the same distance either way. Just follow the signs to Ramona Falls on the way there and to the parking lot when heading back.
The 2 miles on the north side continue along the north bank of the Sandy River, where evidence of volcanic and glacier activity can be seen by the large cut the small river made through the mountainous terrain over thousands of years. Large rhododendrons, which bloom in early summer, line both flanks of the trail. The best parts of walking the north trail to start are the consistent views of colossal Mount Hood over the Douglas fir trees. Maybe it’s because I’m a Florida kid, but there’s something strange about sweating in the Oregon summer sun, looking up and seeing snow caps in August.
The southern trail follows along crystal-clear Ramona Creek and 100-foot granite rock walls that makes up part of Mount Hood’s base. Visitors will likely run into pungent smelling PCT hikers, as this trail is a portion of the Pacific Crest Trail.
The trail comes to its crescendo at the base of the roaring Ramona Falls. The falls start from a single point and drape down and across the rocks below. There is plenty of space to sit, relax and eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch while witnessing a majestic waterfall.
Although a heavily trafficked area, the Ramona Falls loop offers that back country adventure feel through the Mount Hood National Forest, including a river crossing and gorgeous towering waterfalls without a crazy elevation gain or having to drive too far off a paved road.
Ramona Falls Loop
In a nutshell : A popular waterfall hike in Mount Hood National Forest featuring low-grade elevation, a portion of the Pacific Crest Trail and a glacier river crossing.
Length: 8-mile lollipop loop
Climb: 1,135 feet
Difficulty : Moderately difficult due to river crossing and length.
Children: 10 or older — must feel safe crossing river.
Drive time from Salem/Eugene: Two hours from Salem and nearly three hours from Eugene.
Permit required: Yes, a free one you fill out about a mile into the hike and $5-day parking.
From Eugene: Head north on I-5 toward Portland for 94.4 miles then take exit 288 for I-205 north toward Oregon City. Stay on I-205 for 11 miles, take Exit 12 onto OR-212/224 east toward Damascus. After almost 12 miles take the ramp for US-26 Mount Hood Highway. In 21 miles hang a left on E Lolo Pass Road, take a right onto Muddy Fork Road in 4.2 miles, another right onto NFD Road 1825 in a mile and a left on NFD Road 100 for 1.7 miles and arrive at the huge parking lot for Sandy River Trail #770.
From Salem: Head north on I-5 toward Portland for 34.6 miles then take exit 288 for I-205 north toward Oregon City. Stay on I-205 for 11 miles, then take Exit 12 onto OR-212/224 east toward Damascus. After almost 12 miles take the ramp for US-26 Mount Hood Highway. In 21 miles hang a left on E Lolo Pass Road, a right onto Muddy Fork Road in 4.2 miles, another right onto NFD Road 1825 in a mile and a left on NFD Road 100 for 1.7 miles and arrive at the huge parking lot for Sandy River Trail #770.
Plan ahead: Navigations apps will say the final three roads are unpaved. They are paved; however, there are cavities in the pavement that are more kin to craters than potholes. The most treacherous terrain of the entire journey is the last half mile of the drive if you don’t have a high clearance vehicle. I recommend traversing the potholes slow or adding an extra mile to the hike by parking before the hazards.
More advice for crossing glacial rivers
- Avoid hiking alone
- Check local weather and avoid trails if storms or heavy rain are predicted
- Plan crossings for early morning
- Be willing to turn back if conditions seem unsafe
- Scout up and down river for safest crossing location
- Keep pack on, but undo hip and chest straps
- Wear boots, sneakers or water sandals for protection
- Use a hiking stick
- Cross together facing upstream in a perpendicular line to the stream’s flow

The Ultimate 4-Day Road Trip from Portland: Explore the Columbia River Gorge, Mt. Hood Scenic Byway, and Oregon Trail
Immerse yourself in the pacific northwest's magic on this easy-to-drive oregon road trip.
One of my favorite summer road trips is to make an easy driving loop out of Portland through the Columbia River Gorge and around Mt. Hood. The trip takes you on the Mount Hood Scenic Byway, past Oregon's tallest peak, the snow-capped Mt. Hood, and along the final portion of the historic Oregon Trail. Although you can drive the entire 105-mile route in under four hours, it's best to savor the journey over four days, immersing yourself in the beauty of the Pacific Northwest and partaking in adventures from waterfall hikes to wine tasting.
![](http://adsite.space/777/templates/cheerup/res/banner1.gif)
Day 1: Dive into Portland's Eclectic Culture
Start your adventure in Portland, known for its diverse arts, music, culinary, and outdoor scenes. Set against the backdrop of Mt. Hood, Portland’s historic West End is a hub of creativity, fashion, and nightlife. Don't miss Powell’s City of Books , the largest bookstore in the world, spanning an entire city block with over a million volumes.
Stay at The Nines , a luxury hotel next to Portland’s Pioneer Square. Housed in the historic Meier & Frank Building, this hotel features striking décor and an impressive contemporary art collection. Enjoy city and Willamette River views from the rooftop bar or dine at the Departure Restaurant, which serves modern Asian fare with a Pacific Northwest twist.
For a memorable dining experience, visit Scotch Lodge , a speakeasy with a modern French menu. Start with the oysters served with three types of granitas, followed by the arancini appetizer. The duck breast pappardelle pasta is a popular entrée choice, complemented by a craft cocktail from their whiskey-focused bar. Other notable restaurants include Le Pigeon, known for its innovative French cuisine, and Tasty n Alder, offering a globally influenced menu with local ingredients.
Days 2 & 3: Explore the Columbia River Gorge
From Portland, take I-84 east towards Hood River to explore the Columbia River Gorge, the largest National Scenic Area in the US. The area is renowned for its breathtaking waterfalls, like Multnomah Falls , the tallest waterfall in Oregon, with a total drop of 620 feet. It is one of the most visited natural attractions in the Pacific Northwest.
The falls are easily accessible from Interstate 84. There is a parking lot specifically for Multnomah Falls visitors. It's a short, paved walk from the parking area to the viewing area at the base of the falls. For a more immersive experience, hike the 1.2-mile trail to Benson Bridge, which spans the first tier of the falls, and continue up a series of switchbacks to the top for panoramic views of the Columbia River Gorge.
Other excellent hikes in this area include the Eagle Creek Trail to Punchbowl Falls , a 4.2-mile round trip through lush forests to a pretty waterfall. For a more challenging hike, try the Dog Mountain Trail , a 6.9-mile loop with steep climbs but rewarding panoramic views.
The area is also home to around 50 wineries and 90 vineyards . Located in Hood River, Hiyu Wine Farm is known for its organic wines and farm-to-table dining experience. Their small-batch wines reflect the region's unique terroir, and you can book a wine farmers lunch, which pairs their wines with farm-to-table fare. Cathedral Ridge Winery , also in Hood River, is celebrated for its award-winning Zinfandel and Syrah varietals. You can do vineyard tours and guided tastings here.
Spend the night at Sakura Ridge , a luxury five-room bed and breakfast on a working farm and orchard in Hood River. Recently renovated and owned by Nashi Orchards, this B&B offers fantastic views and exceptional breakfasts. It is also known for its cider, produced from fruits grown in its orchards.
Day 4: Explore the Mt. Hood Area
Drive towards Mt. Hood via Hwy 35 and then head west on Hwy 26, the last segment of the Oregon Trail used by pioneers in the mid-1800s. The journey features mossy green rainforests, snowy mountains, and rushing waterfalls. The Mt. Hood area is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts with excellent hiking trails.
Check out the Mirror Lake Trail , a 4.4-mile round trip offering stunning views of Mt. Hood reflected in the lake, or the Ramona Falls Trail, a 7-mile loop that takes you to a beautiful cascading waterfall. Don't miss the Trillium Lake Loop , a 2-mile easy hike with breathtaking views of Mt. Hood.
Stay at the historic Timberline Lodge , built in 1936 and a National Historic Landmark. Known for North America's longest ski season, this lodge offers cozy rooms, a pub, a restaurant, and residents St. Bernards, Bruno, and Heidi. In summer, there is plenty to keep you entertained. One of the most popular summer activities is riding the Magic Mile Chair Lift to the mountain top. The spectacular view of Mt. Hood, Palmer Snowfield, and nearby Mt. Jefferson is gorgeous.
