Gateway to the Columbia River Gorge

Troutdale sits at the western entrance to the Historic Columbia River Highway, putting you minutes from some of the Pacific Northwest’s most iconic natural landmarks. Crown Point and Vista House offer sweeping panoramic views of the gorge that attract visitors from around the world — yet for Eastwood residents, a weekend morning drive is all it takes. Multnomah Falls, the second-tallest year-round waterfall in the United States, is less than 30 minutes away. The Sandy River Delta, one of Oregon’s largest river delta parks, provides miles of off-leash dog trails, fishing, and swimming — right in your backyard.

Whether you prefer a quiet walk along the riverbank or a challenging trail run through old-growth forest, Troutdale’s outdoor options are extraordinary. Lewis & Clark State Recreation Area, Glenn Otto Community Park, and the Sandy River Gorge Trail system offer accessible green space year-round.
