The White Salmon Baking Company is worth the drive across the bridge! Their cardamom buns are amazing.
Ride bikes at Post Canyon then swing down to Waterfront Park to take a dip in the river to cool off and wash away the dust.
Grab a tasty drink at the local favorite, Camp 1805. Their appetizers are amazing too!
Head up for a lovely drive and Grateful Vineyard pizza and Pinot.
The Best Western Plus Hood River Inn has prime water real estate and one the best happy hours in town.
Insider Tip!
Get active! My favorite way to experience the Gorge is by playing outside.
