It’s home to multiple diverse natural environments like enchanting forests, rolling hills of flowers, glacier-iced mountain tops, and hot springs, making it the perfect place to enjoy a wide range of outdoor activities.

Crater Lake National Park, Oregon

This national park owes its name to a volcano eruption that occurred over 7,000 years ago. When the large explosion was finished, it had taken down a mountain, leaving a large lake in its wake. This lake is likely the deepest you can find in the country and now offers a variety of water-based activities all year round.
If you’re looking for a place to park, camp out near Crater Lake and watch the moon reflect on the water at night and take a swim in the deep blue water as the sun rises. You can also take advantage of their boat tours to see more of the lake that’s hard to access or hike on the Mount Scott or Plaikini trails for an unforgettable view.

Sitting at 14,410 feet, this unmissable active volcano is an iconic part of the western Washington skyline. This is one of the most popular national parks in the region since its creation in 1899, bringing in an average of two million visitors per year.
Here you can hike the famous Skyline Trail Loop, mountain climb, check out the many cascading waterfalls, or snow-shoe through the forest for a one-of-a-kind experience.
The Columbia River Gorge, Oregon, and Washington

Both the Oregon and Washington side of the Columbia River Gorge are equally entertaining and exceptional. The side that falls within Oregon state lines is renowned for its waterfalls, wildflowers, biking trails, and water sports.
The Washington side is a slightly drier environment, but no less fun! Here you can see petroglyphs, the Maryhill Museum’s world-class permanent art collection, try regional wine varieties, and enjoy a more slow-paced scenic view of the water.
