PORTLAND RESTS ON traditional village sites of the Multnomah, Wasco, Cowlitz, Kathlamet, Clackamas, Bands of Chinook, Tualatin Kalapuya, Molalla and many other Native American tribes. In the 1800s, Oregon tribes were forcibly removed and white settlers occupied 2.5 million acres of tribal land, including what is now Portland.

Today, Portland’s urban Native population includes nearly 70,000 people from almost 400 tribes. Connect with Indigenous community at places like The Center for Native Arts and Cultures (p. 66), Back to the Basket (p. 77) and Five Oaks Museum.

Accessible Adventures

Portland is a city for everyone — with accessibility woven into its fabric.

A CITY BLOCK OF BOOKS

This bibliophile’s dream has something for everyone.

POWELL’S CITY OF BOOKS

Its flagship outpost, which sits at the southern border of the stylish Pearl District, is the world’s largest independent bookstore. That’s not surprising given that it takes up an entire city block and its selection of approximately 1 million new and used titles spans nine rooms across four bustling floors.

Color-coded store map in hand, browse 3,500 genres and categories — the latest bestsellers are shelved alongside rare and out-of-print titles — and all manner of gifts for the book lover in your life, including puzzles, apparel, greeting cards and games. Take a breather at the Princess Bride–themed Guilder Café and plan a return trip for an upcoming author event.

DIVISION/CLINTON

Film buffs should plan two stops here: The Tomorrow Theater (3530 SE Division St.) pushes the boundaries of cinematic storytelling, incorporating at least two distinct art forms concurrently 24 nights each month. First opened in 1915, the Clinton Street Theater (2522 SE Clinton St.) screens indie and revival films and has hosted the world’s longest run of the Rocky Horror Picture Show, every Saturday night since 1978.

FOSTER-POWELL

Pan-Asian bakery An Xuyên (5345 SE Foster Rd.) is a neighborhood favorite, serving banh mi, pastries and, if you’re lucky, spring rolls. In a town brimming with breweries, Black-owned Assembly Brewing (6112 SE Foster Rd.) is a welcome addition, boasting a large dining room and some of Portland’s best Detroit-style pizza.

Anchoring the northern tip of Foster-Powell since 1995, I’ve Been Framed (4950 SE Foster Rd.) is the go-to shop for all your art-making needs. Parents shouldn’t miss Hammer and Jacks (6406 SE Foster Rd.), a motherowned toy shop with frequent public playtimes.

NORTH

PORTLAND’S SO-CALLED “Fifth Quadrant” is a lively patchwork of commercial districts, natural spaces and some of the city’s most charming neighborhoods, including St. Johns , Mississippi , Williams and Kenton . “NoPo” also boasts striking landmarks and attractions, like the historic St. Johns Bridge and the Smith and Bybee Wetlands Natural Area — the largest protected wetlands within an American city, where you’ll find beavers, otters, turtles and deer. Near the district’s northern edge, you’ll find the Portland Expo Center ( 2060 N Marine Dr .) — home to some of Oregon’s largest events — and the Portland International Raceway ( 1940 N Victory Blvd. ), which hosts Indycar’s Grand Prix of Portland.

MISSISSIPPI

Along this stretch of great shops, restaurants and bars, you can hunt for rare records at Mississippi Records (5202 N Albina Ave.), find local art at PDXchange (3916 N Mississippi Ave.) or treat yourself at queer-friendly adult toy shop SheBop (909 N Beech St., Suite A). Food carts surround a German pub at Prost! Marketplace (4237 N Mississippi Ave.). For a fun evening, grab happy hour bites at Mee-Sen Thai (3924 N Mississippi Ave.) and a pre-Prohibition-style cocktail at Interurban (4057 N Mississippi Ave.), then catch some live music at Mississippi Studios (3939 N Mississippi Ave.).

WILLIAMS

A few blocks east of Mississippi, Williams bustles with great food and drink. Warm up with coffee and cocktails at Either/Or (4003 N Williams Ave.), sample soup dumplings at XLB (4090 N Williams Ave.) and try Thaimeets-Texas-barbecue at Eem (3808 N Williams Ave.). Next door, shop for vintage finds at Circle Round (3808 N Williams Ave.) or gender-neutral clothing at Monochromatic (4026 N Williams Ave.) — or craft your own Portland souvenir while enjoying local beer and wine at DIY Bar (3522 N Vancouver Ave.).

ST. JOHNS

At the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia Rivers, leafy St. Johns exudes small-town charm with lots of locally owned shops, pubs and cafés. Pack a picnic blanket for an afternoon in Cathedral Park (N Edison St. and Pittsburg Ave.), beneath the picturesque St. Johns Bridge. Find your next read and your next knitting project at Two Rivers Bookstore, which shares space with Weird Sisters Yarn (8636 N Lombard St.), then admire vintage cameras and typewriters at Blue Moon Camera & Machine (8417 N Lombard St.). Round out your day with creative cocktails at Havalina (8927 N Lombard St.) and live music at The Fixin’ To (8218 N Lombard St.).

KENTON

Right off the MAX Light Rail Yellow Line, Kenton welcomes you with its unmissable Paul Bunyan statue (N Denver and N Interstate Avenues). For caffeine, hit up Cyclemaster Coffee Co (2747 N Lombard St.) and admire its display of vintage cycles. Try the Kenton Club (2025 N Kilpatrick St.) for a classic dive bar experience, get your art fix at the Oregon Contemporary (8371 N Interstate Ave.) and shop for handmade ceramics at Mantel (8202 N Denver Ave.) or vintage vinyl at Speck’s Records & Tapes (8216 N Denver Ave.).

SOUTHWEST & SOUTH

MOST VISITS TO Portland include some time in bustling, walkable Downtown, which boasts a high concentration of hotels, shops, restaurants and attractions. To the west, Goose Hollow is home to Old Portland architecture and soccer matches at Providence Park, while Multnomah Village provides small-town vibes. In the West Hills, Washington Park comprises many green spaces and attractions, including the International Rose Test Garden and the Portland Japanese Garden.

Minutes from downtown, the South Waterfront district is where you’ll find the Portland Aerial Tram and Tilikum Crossing, a car-free bridge spanning the Willamette River.

DOWNTOWN PORTLAND

Downtown Portland is the colorful center of the City of Roses. Its many hotels and central location make it a great place to stay, while small blocks and plentiful public transportation options make exploring a breeze. Enjoy attractions like the Oregon Historical Society (1200 SW Park Ave.) and the renowned Portland Art Museum, due to fully reopen in late 2025 (1219 SW Park Ave.). Tax-free shopping runs the gamut from design-focused Canoe (1233 SW 12th Ave.) and boutique Frances May (521 SW 10th Ave.) to high-end brands at Pioneer Place (700 SW Fifth Ave.) and Union Way (1022 W Burnside St.).

Come mealtime, try Maurice (921 SW Oak St.) for elevated Norwegian and French lunch offerings, Murata (200 SW Market St.) for upscale Japanese classics or Tasty Corner (624 SW Hall St.) for multi-regional Chinese dishes. For a classic Portland experience, enjoy seafood at Jake’s Famous Crawfish (401 SW 12th Ave.) or combine city views with happy hour deals at Portland City Grill (111 SW Fifth Ave.), 30 floors up. Still thirsty? Visit The Cart Blocks (770 W Burnside St.), where a double-decker bus houses a pub, or The Green Room (1124 SW Alder St.) for a refined cocktail.

GOOSE HOLLOW

Just west of downtown — and far removed from its history of plank roads and literal geese — Goose Hollow blends historic architecture and modern flourishes. Visit Coco Donuts (709 SW 17th Ave.) for airy, fried, jam-filled delights; Gilda’s (1601 SW Morrison St.) for a hearty bowl of pasta; or Goose Hollow Inn (1927 SW Jefferson St.) for a Reuben and a pint. Sip classic cocktails at the Driftwood Room (729 SW 15th Ave.), a Portland landmark since 1954, then join enthusiastic soccer fans at Providence Park (1844 SW Morrison St.), home to the Timbers and Thorns.

Expand

MULTNOMAH VILLAGE

Just 6 miles (9.7 km) south of downtown, quaint streets evoke small-town life. Dining options range from Portland classics like Fat City Cafe (7820 SW Capitol Hwy.) to the food carts at the French Quarter (3518 SW Multnomah Blvd.). Finish your village visit by shopping at Switch (7863 SW Capitol Hwy.) for shoes and clothes, Thinker Toys (7784 SW Capitol Hwy.) for kids’ fun or Annie Bloom’s Books (7834 SW Capitol Hwy.) for familyfriendly books and gifts.

SOUTH WATERFRONT

This sliver of a district is dominated by new highrises and defined by an attraction that rises above them all: the Portland Aerial Tram (3303 S Bond Ave.). Reach the tram via Portland Streetcar or MAX Light Rail; this neighborhood is very well connected, transit-wise. In fact, it boasts the country’s only bridge dedicated to light-rail, buses, bicycles and pedestrians — no cars allowed. The striking Tilikum Crossing (trimet.org/tilikum) connects the South Waterfront and Central Eastside districts and offers great downtown views and nighttime illumination. Refuel with Northwest-meets-Mexico cuisine at Comedor Lilia (3159 S Moody Ave.) or fine Lebanese food at Al-Hawr (3500 S River Pkwy.).

Washington Park

A Community of Destinations

A 15-minute light-rail ride from downtown, Washington Park (explorewashingtonpark.org) offers a zoo, a spectacular rose garden and an authentic Japanese garden, all bordered by the urban wilderness of Forest Park.

FOR THE KIDS

Polar bears, red pandas and lions all draw crowds to the Oregon Zoo (4001 SW Canyon Rd.). But the biggest stars are the Asian elephants, who enjoy a state-of-the-art habitat that lets visitors see them up close.

Forests have never been more interesting, thanks to the World Forestry Center’s Discovery Museum (4033 SW Canyon Rd.), a dramatic wooden building where visitors get a bird’s-eye view of the trees and learn about sustainability.

The Rose Garden Children’s Playground (1700 SW Sherwood Blvd.) dazzles with slides, giant castle structures, ramps, bridges and swings.

GARDENS GALORE

Get to the root of Portland’s Rose City moniker at the International Rose Test Garden (400 SW

Kingston Ave.), where peak bloom season runs from late May to September. The multi-tiered grounds amaze year-round with stunning views of Mt. Hood and Portland’s skyline.

Striking passageways and fountains lead you to the Portland Japanese Garden (611 SW Kingston Ave.). Take in eight unique gardens — including a pond and ceremonial teahouse — set among cherry trees, azaleas and Japanese maples.

SOLEMN MEMORIALS

The curved black granite wall of the Vietnam Veterans of Oregon Memorial (4000 SW Canyon Rd.), inscribed with the names of 800 Oregonians who died or went missing in action, was inspired by the famed monument in Washington, D.C.

The Oregon Holocaust Memorial (SW Washington Way and Wright Ave.) spurs quiet reflection with its bronze casts representing victims’ belongings and a wall engraved with quotes from survivors.

NOTE: Parking at Washington Park is extremely limited. The best ways to reach the park are MAX Light Rail, free shuttle and bus.

Taste some of Portland’s most iconic, old-school dishes that even locals crave.

AMALFI’S ITALIAN RESTAURANT has specialized in classic Italian comfort food since 1959. The lasagna is legendary at the Black woman–owned spot, but pizza is the most popular menu item. A thin, crunchy crust supports a gamut of savory toppings like well-seasoned meats, roasted veggies and cheese-pullworthy mozzarella. 4703 NE Fremont St.

It’s unsurprising, perhaps, but the namesake dish at Clyde’s Prime Rib Restaurant and Bar — beautifully marbled, slow-roasted prime rib — is the star at this retro steak house. Doused in garlic and herbs and served with aromatic jus, the meal offers a show on the side with live bands on weekends. 5474 NE Sandy Blvd.

The true romance of having a little treat before having another little treat.

AT ICE QUEEN , an ever-changing paleta case awaits you at the Southeast storefront. Each paleta, a handcrafted work of art, echoes owner Rebecca Smith’s rich Latine heritage. If you like sweet and spicy, get the mangonada — juicy mango mixed with sour chamoy and a hint of chili. 2012 SE 11th Ave. At Scottie’s, pizza means passion. This NY-style spot offers a focused menu of meticulously crafted pizza made with local ingredients, with one exception: vine-ripened organic California tomatoes for the sauce. Its naturally leavened pizza dough is made from Pacific Northwest-grown wheat and slowly fermented before baking. Order a slice or a whole pie!

Two locations

Hat Yai, named after the Southern Thai city that inspired the restaurant’s iconic dishes, offers signature crispy chicken and Malaysian curries. The aroma alone has tempted many a weary traveler into one of the two eastside locations, where a steady stream of fragrant, welcoming goodies pours from the kitchen into the indoor and outdoor dining spaces.

HE SILKROAD TO FLAVORTOW

TMushroom-infused martinis and Wagyu-stuffed dumplings are the norm at this new cocktail lounge.

LATE-NIGHT COCKTAIL lounge Silk Road is a welcome addition to the Pearl District’s selection of elevated meals and drinks.

Named after China’s historic Han Dynasty trading route, it offers a journey through East Asian flavors as bartenders stir up shitakeinfused vermouth martinis (Fungus Among Us) and shake five-spice simple syrup into their daiquiris (Five Spice Snaquiri).

Chinese American menu classics are served alongside these playful creations, with recipes inspired by chef Lexi Foong’s Portland restaurant upbringing. Utilizing family recipes, Foong crafts an elevated approach to well-recognized Chinese dishes.

Dumplings are stuffed with Wagyu beef, while chow mein gets a makeover with handcut rice noodles.

Silk Road arrives as a sibling to owner Vijay Kumar’s other cocktail lounge, LULU, located in Southeast’s Buckman neighborhood serving a fusion of Peruvian-Japanese fare. While both bars are intentionally designed as local stalwarts, LULU is more of an all-ages ex perience, while Silk Road hosts an intimate atmosphere perfect for getting lost in latenight conversation. 1230 NW Hoyt St. B

Mexican-inspired ciders poured in Portland.

WHEN SHANI AND JOSÉ

Gonzalez considered names for their nascent craft cider company, only one moniker made sense to the husbandand-wife duo: La Familia

Cider .

The concept of family has long been embedded in the business’s DNA. It was launched in 2017 with hard apple ciders inspired by the fruity aguas frescas drinks the Gonzalezes grew up drinking in Mexico, and they leaned on recipes from José’s mother to fine-tune the first few batches.

Their son, Jay Jay, manages the cozy, wood-paneled Portland taproom, where a handful of house-made ciders — including a slightly tart pour crafted with tamarind — are served alongside an innovative selection of ciderinfused cocktails. A shareable food menu includes tortas,

quesadillas, churros and other light bites made with ingredients from local, largely Latine-owned purveyors. A portion of the profits goes to local organizations that help families navigate the often-confusing legal U.S. immigration process.

Portland’s Heart and Soul

Experience music from the city’s Black community at these integral venues.

THE HISTORY OF BLACK MUSIC in Portland mostly centers on jazz clubs and an array of jazz musicians, including Esperanza Spalding, Dave Frishberg, Mel Brown and Jim Pepper. Today, standout figures from Portland’s younger hip-hop, soul and R&B scene are breaking out and putting the Rose City on the map — from mainstream and mainstream-bound hip-hop stars like ILoveMakonnen to local soul fixtures Zyah Belle and Blossom to jazz-informed acts like trumpeter Farnell Newton and instrumental quartet Greaterkind.

The Jack London Revue is one of the city’s last-standing dedicated jazz venues. The downtown, speakeasy-style club hosts local residencies, plus soul, R&B and hip-hop touring acts. 529 SW Fourth Ave.

Bought by drummer Tyrone Hendrix and Monica Mast in 2022, Alberta Street Pub is now Oregon’s

sole Black-owned music venue. The vibes here are relaxed and familial; music goes down in a small showroom behind the bar or on a sprawling patio fitted with twinkle lights. 1036 NE Alberta St.

Nearby, Alberta Abbey hosts events from all-ages concerts (produced by local nonprofit Friends of Noise) to open mics, art fairs and benefit shows. 126 NE Alberta St.

Regular hip-hop-minded shows include DJ/producer showcase A Beat Happening (various locations) and The Thesis, held monthly at the Lollipop Shoppe, 736 SE Grand Ave

Additionally, visit the Albina Music Trust (albinamusictrust.com) — a community archive dedicated to the restoration of musical culture from Portland’s historically Black neighborhood — for a schedule of its special musical events. –JM

Enjoy the hottest queer nightlife in the Rose City.

Badlands Portland Queer spaces are thriving in Portland, as proven by this ultra-cool dance venue, which housed the iconic gay bar Embers for five decades. There’s usually no cover before 9 p.m., and skilled DJs, go-go dancers and amateur drag shows keep the party hopping. 110 NW Broadway

Doc Marie’s Portland’s only lesbian bar opens its doors to everyone. And with events like Bi/Pan Dance Night and Queeraoke, there are plenty of reasons to stroll or roll in. The crown jewel: Queer Prom, complete with deliciously awkward photo ops, is held annually. 203 SE Grand Ave.

Back2Earth

Dancing is awesome — duh — but it’s not the only thing queer people get together to do. At Northeast Portland’s Back2Earth, gather for craft nights, bingo, Dyke Nite, Hikers Happy Hours and more (including dancing).

PORTLAND-MADE KEEPSAKES

These three brands exemplify local craftsmanship.

AMID THE BUSTLE OF downtown is tranquil Kiriko Made, a shop and studio that embraces the spirit of mottainai, a Japanese value encouraging zero-waste and recycling. Kiriko sources traditional kasuri fabric from Japan, giving it a second life as apparel and accessories. Don’t miss its sister home goods store, Kokoro, across the street. 1001 and 986 SW Morrison St.

The leather legacy of Orox Leather Co. spans four generations. In 1933, family patriarch Don Felipe Martinez Audelo started a thriving leather business in Oaxaca, Mexico. More than 70 years later, his great-great-grandchildren brought their goods to the Portland Saturday Market and Orox became a beloved local brand. These quality products don’t go out of style and will be loved for years, or even generations! 450 NW Couch St.

SE Hawthorne?

A Diversity of Thrift

In a sea of secondhand stunners, these shops stand out.

I Want Seconds started as a pop-up in the owner’s

garage that became a vibrant love letter to Portland’s fat community. Secondhand clothes start at size 14/XL and go up as high as possible for all genders. This affirming space is also a well-known favorite of several local drag stars. 3204 SE Hawthorne Blvd.

Midtowners Market is a community-centered vintage and maker market that focuses on hosting new vendors and artists. This welcoming space fosters collaboration in the maker scene. 1736 SE Hawthorne Blvd. —MMB

AROUND PORTLAND, BIKING IS about more than getting from here to there. More than 400 miles (644 km) of bike lanes, protected paths and low-traffic streets (aka neighborhood greenways) crisscross the city, and they get heavy usage thanks to our popular bike-share program, year-round group rides and dedicated loops through some of Portland’s best-loved sights. Start your pedaling journey with Biketown (biketownpdx.com), which provides more than 3,000 e-bikes and scooters at more than 240 stations as well as a fleet of Adaptive Biketown (adaptive biketown.com) rides available to rent on the Central Eastside. The City of Portland (portland.gov) has route suggestions for all skill levels, including paths that travel past flowering gardens, hug the Willamette River waterfront and visit a handful of leafy parks.

You’ll also find fun group rides in every season. In winter, the Worst Day Ride (orbike. com) braves the elements for a fun frolic across the city. From spring through fall, the Portland Sunday Parkways program hosts laid-back rides that follow neighborhood greenways and celebrate local businesses. And in summer, Pedalpalooza (pedalpalooza.org) sprawls across Portland with hundreds of themed group rides in June, July and August.

ON THE WATER

Here’s how to have fun on the Willamette River all year long.

THE WILLAMETTE RIVER — pronounced Will-AM-it — runs north-south through Portland, splitting the city in two and offering all kinds of fun, from summertime swimming holes to year-round wildlife-watching.

In spring and summer, grab a rental kayak or stand-up paddleboard from local outfitters and paddle around Ross Island — where you might spy hawks, mallards, great blue herons and other birds soaring overhead.

Bring your swimsuit and cool off in summer with a dip along quiet stretches of shoreline throughout the city. The Kevin Duckworth Memorial Dock (Eastbank Esplanade, between

the Burnside and Steel Bridges), across from downtown, provides eight swim ladders and hosts a swimming hole that’s protected from passing boaters on the Willamette River. South Waterfront Park (S River Dr. and S Montgomery St.) sits at the foot of the Hawthorne Bridge near downtown and provides swimmers with a gentle grade and sandy shoreline. Before you head to the water, though, stay safe by knowing your limits, staying out of the water when it’s windy and limiting your time in chilly water — especially in May, June and September.

You can also enjoy the river while taking a pedal-

powered tour with Paddle Pub Portland (paddlepub.com/ portland), relaxing in a floating hot tub from Yacht Tubs (yacht-tubs.com) or going for an adrenaline rush on a fast-paced tour with Willamette Jetboat Excursions (willamettejet. com). Throughout the year, the Portland Spirit (portlandspirit. com) offers sightseeing tours

Downright Gorge-ous

Waterfalls, vistas and forests await in the Columbia River Gorge.

HEADING INTO THE Columbia River Gorge (hood-gorge.com), roughly 30 miles (48 km) east of Portland, you don’t just leave the city behind — you immerse yourself in a real-life fairy tale.

Bisected by its namesake river, the 80-mile-long (129 km) gorge measures 4,000 feet (1,219 m) at its deepest point and is chockablock with wideopen vistas, windswept crags, towering forests of Douglas fir and more than 90 thundering waterfalls.

Drive the century-old Historic Columbia River Highway or hop in the saddle for a bike ride on the curvy road. Along the way, explore miles of hiking trails, admire the likes of Horsetail Falls, Latourell Falls and famous Multnomah Falls (visiting permits required during summer).

Shred mountain biking trails at Post Canyon and get on the Columbia River in Hood River — dubbed the “windsurfing capital of the world” for good reason.

When the dust settles, relive your day’s memories over downhome grub in Cascade Locks, craft beers and fresh fare in Hood River or wine-tasting and laid-back dinners in The Dalles.

The best trips to the Gorge are car-free!

Making Mountain Memories

Find fun in Mt. Hood Territory (mthoodterritory.com).

SANDY

Make this your first pit stop as you head out of Portland. Stroll the Old West-inspired city’s downtown core; grab a snack at a local eatery, like the long-running Joe’s Donuts ( 39230 Pioneer Blvd .); enjoy wide-open views of Mt. Hood from Jonsrud Viewpoint Park (15652 Bluff Rd.) and pick up gear from a local outfitter for your adventures on the mountain.

Beyond the Vine

Quench

your thirst adventuring through Oregon’s tastiest valley.

THE VILLAGES AT MOUNT HOOD

Collectively, the communities of Rhododendron, Zigzag and Welches comprise the Villages at Mount Hood. They host several roadhouses; the Sandy Ridge Trail System (62700 E Barlow Trail Road, Brightwood), popular among mountain bikers; and the fascinating Wildwood Recreation Site (65670 US 26, Welches), where underwater panels offer up-close views of spawning salmon every autumn.

GOVERNMENT CAMP

This cozy community — about 60 miles (96.6 km) southeast of Portland — makes a fine starting point for mountain adventures. The iconic Timberline Lodge ( 27500 E Timberline Rd., Government Camp ) is home to the area’s highest-elevation ski slopes; Mt. Hood Skibowl ( 87000 US 26, Government Camp ) offers the nation’s largest night-skiing area.

THE TUALATIN VALLEY (tualatinvalley.org) sits at the northwestern edge of the Willamette Valley, where Portland’s suburbs give way to patchwork quilts of bucolic farmland and the Coast Range foothills — creating ideal growing conditions for some of Oregon’s best-loved wines.

Sip your way through Burgundian-style vines at Árdíri Winery and Vineyard (35040 SW Unger Road, Cornelius), paired with stellar patio views of the Chehalem foothills.

Apolloni Vineyards (14135 NW Timmerman Rd., Forest Grove)

produces signature pinot noir and several Italian-style wines — including the region’s only estate-grown sangiovese and pinot grigio.

Besides 40 wineries (and counting), the valley is home to two national trails; paddle through the Tualatin River Water Trail, or pedal past bridges, exquisite views and gentle elevation with the Banks-Vernonia State Trail After exploring the area’s eight nature parks, hit up one of two dozen breweries where thirsty travelers can imbibe everything from beer to sake and cider. —MW

SAUVIE ISLAND

Just northwest of Portland, Sauvie Island is the largest island in the Columbia River — offering a mix of family farms that put on harvest festivals every fall, public beaches for cooling off on sunny afternoons, and forests and wetlands that host more than 250 species of wildlife.

ST. HELENS AND SCAPPOOSE

Just 30–45 minutes northwest of Portland, watch for bald eagles, herons and other waterfowl while paddling amid the marshes of Scappoose Bay, or follow an old logging route while cycling the Crown Zellerbach Trail (columbiacountyor.gov). Afterward, refuel at The Lodge Carts (51875 SW Old Portland Rd.) in Scappoose, where 11 food carts

offer a bevy of global eats and desserts.

GRESHAM AND TROUTDALE

At the eastern edge of the Portland region, Gresham (greshamchamber.org) and Troutdale are idyllic gateways to the Columbia River Gorge but offer plenty to love on their own. Gresham’s Main City Park (219 S Main Ave.) boasts leafy walking paths and the Gresham Japanese Garden, while Troutdale invites you to lounge along the Sandy River in several riverside parks. Enjoy a flat hike through the Sandy River Delta (Thousand Acres Road, Troutdale) and treat yourself with sweet eats at Sugarpine Drive-In (1208 E Historic Columbia River Highway, Troutdale).

Coastal Treasures

Plan a getaway to the rugged Oregon Coast — just two hours from Portland.

Cannon Beach is beloved for its inspiring galleries, creative culinary scene, resident elk herds and downtown boutiques. Enjoy miles of coastal hikes at Ecola State Park (stateparks.oregon. gov), snag a bag of saltwater taffy at Bruce’s Candy Kitchen, and seek panoramic views of Haystack Rock (a monolith and wildlife habitat) from the Stephanie Inn Dining Room

The historic fishing town of Astoria sits near the mouth of the Columbia River and retains its retro charm with a bricklined downtown, family-friendly museums, plenty of fresh seafood and community-minded craft breweries.

Pick up a souvenir along Seaside’s bustling Broadway corridor, rent a bicycle for an easy ride along the Seaside Promenade (which parallels the Pacific Ocean), paddle the quiet Necanicum River or ride the mountain bike trails at Klootchy Creek Park. —MW visittheoregoncoast.com
