SCENIC COLUMBIA RIVER GORGE ADVENTURE
Multnomah Falls & Private Sternwheeler Dinner Cruise

Tuesday 8/17 - 3:OO p.m. - 1O:OO p.m.

Experience the grandeur of the Columbia River George, and discover the ecology and history of one of the world's most magnificent landscapes as we travel by motor coach along the scenic Old Columbia River Gorge Highway. This popular roadway will engage you with its commanding views, compelling vistas from scenic viewpoints, hanging valleys, terraced cliffs, fantastic rock pinnacles, and enchanting waterfalls.

Visit the most impressive of these, Multnomah Falls, which plummets 620 feet, making it the second highest year-round waterfall in the United States. At Multnomah Falls enjoy the splendor of the falls, explore displays at the outdoor interpretive center, take a short 1/4-mile walk along the trail to the historic Benson arch bridge for a closer look at the falls, shop in the gift store, and view and example of "Cascadian Architecture", the historic Multnomah Falls lodge, which was built in 1925 by famed architect A.E. Doyle.

From Multnomah Falls we continue along the Columbia River to Cascade Locks where you'll board the Columbia Gorge Sternwheeler, an authentic paddlewheel driven ship reminiscent of the boats that traveled the Columbia and Willamette rivers at the turn of the century, for a 2.5-hour nostalgic dinner cruise on the Columbia River.

Dinner includes: Choice on board of plated salmon filet, pan seared breast of Chicken or vegetarian entree, house Salad, baked bread, coffee and hot tea service, or iced tea.
