Program details

Seeing majestic Mount Hood is one of the ultimate Oregon experiences and you can visit this lofty volcano from Portland with either of two fascinating tours. Both promise breathtaking scenery, lush landscapes and the boundless sense of freedom that comes from revelling in the great outdoors of America. Choose either the Mount Hood Loop Adventure tour or the Mount Hood Snowshoe tour for a day trip like no other.

Feel the exhilaration as you catch the first glimpse the snowcapped peak rising like an iceberg from a sea of evergreen forests and prepare yourself for an experience that will make the scenic drive from Portland a truly memorable journey.

The Mount Hood Loop Adventure takes you along the Columbia River Gorge and around Mount Hood, offering you views of spectacular waterfalls, stream laden walks, historic sites, boutique wineries and magnificent mountain vistas. As you travel along the Columbia River Highway, opportunities for hiking, splashing, wine tasting and photography abound on this sensational loop.

The Mount Hood Snowshoe tour offers ample opportunities for adventure, exploration, learning and, naturally, fun. Old and new growth forests, birds, wildlife, lakes, waterfalls and river valleys connected to glaciers are just a few of the sights you may see as you snowshoe high above the hiking trails. Please note if there is not enough snow for snowshoeing, a hike will be done instead.
