Crown-Zellerbach Trail

55Mi, Challenging

Some rails-to-trails routes are, well, more converted than others. Their underlying appeal is that they usually provide a not-too-steep trip through some country you’re not likely to see from a road. And because they usually already have a well-constructed railbed, building a nice paved path on them isn’t all that challenging. Think of the Banks-Vernonia Trail (more on that later).But then there are routes like the Crown-Zellerbach Trail, which is about as minimally converted as you’ve probably encountered. But it still has that same appeal... More

Can we see Multnomah Falls and the Oneonta Gorge in one day?

You can absolutely visit both the waterfalls and then make the "loop" around the mountain to visit Mt. Hood thanks to extended summer daylight hours, or if you plan on getting an early start. I would suggest taking I-84 east, then taking the Corbett exit to join the historic highway. While most people start in Troutdale, you really won't be missing any of the major sights, and this will save you some time if you plan on making the loop around the mountain. After you... More
