The Columbia River Gorge is a stunning natural feature that spans the border between Washington and Oregon.

This dramatic gorge is carved by the Columbia River and stretches for over 80 miles. The area is known for its breathtaking views, waterfalls (including the famous Multnomah Falls), hiking trails, and recreational opportunities. It serves as a major geographical landmark and is renowned for its rich biodiversity, as well as its role in the region's history and transportation. The Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area, designated in 1986, helps protect this unique landscape that is shared by both Washington and Oregon.
