The Historic Columbia River Highway State Trail (external link to printable maps)

The State Trail starts near Hood River, Oregon. There are currently 3 trail segments totalling about 12 miles with spectacular views on the Historic Columbia River Highway State Trail.

  • Bonneville Segment: John B. Yeon to Cascade Locks. The west end of the trail extends from the Elowah Falls trailhead at John B. Yeon State Scenic Corridor to Cascade Locks.
  • Mitchell Point Segment: Wyeth to Viento. The nearly 6-mile segment connects Wyeth Trailhead
  • Twin Tunnels Segment: Hood River to Mosier. Further east, this accessible 4.5-mile segment connects Hood River and Mosier.

It's not complete yet, Mitchell Point tunnel is still under work and will add another 7 mile stretch with spectacular views inside the tunnel!

The tunnel is the main attraction of a new 1.5-mile segment of the Historic Columbia River Highway State Trail, a recreational corridor that retraces the historic 73-mile Historic Columbia Highway between Portland and The Dalles.

While much of the trail follows remaining stretches of the scenic highway, which is open to cars, portions of it are on new, paved pathways open only to cyclists and pedestrians.

[...] When complete, the pieces will make up a 9.5-mile car-free trail between the Wyeth Campground and Mitchell Point: a recreation corridor that offers access to waterfalls, viewpoints and picnic areas, with several access points alongside Interstate 84.
