Hood River

From Wikitravel

Jump to: navigation, search

Hood River [1] is a city in Oregon on the Columbia River. Hood River is renowned for wind surfing.

[edit] Get in

Drive or take a bus from Portland. You can also take the train from Portland to Bingen, Washington just across the river. The drive from Portland through the Columbia River Gorge is outstanding, so if possible, rent a car.

[edit] Get around

It's easy to walk around downtown Hood River, but you pretty much need a car to get to the wind surfing sites.

Hood river is a cool little town. There are good food spots, lots of shopping, and some sweet little hotel/motels; but like most of the trendy places in Oregon kids are very optional.
