Road Trip – Angels Rest
Filed Under Portland · Tagged:
I’ve had many requests from new Portland residents for recommendations on day trips around the Portland area. Every month I’ll send you information on one of my favorite destinations. Please e-mail me with any questions or suggestions…
One of the most beautiful hikes in the western Gorge is Angels Rest. With a distance of 4.4 miles roundrip and 1500 feet in elevation gain, this trail is classified as moderate difficulty and took us about 3 hours, with a break for lunch on top. During the lower half you will climb through forests along a creek before opening up to a breathtaking 270 degree view of the Columbia Gorge.
To reach the trailhead head Eastbound on I-84 Take Bridal veil exit # 28. The trailhead is south of the Historic Columbia River Highway, opposite the junction with the interstate access road in Bridal veil.
