December 3, 20194 Great Travel Tips for the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area
December 5, 2019The blossoming of the wildflowers in Hood River opens up the county to Spring. The snow has melted, the fruit trees have been exposed and given the opportunity to bud. In less than a month, these trees begin to burst forth with white and pink blossoms. This colorful array of land is a sight of pure magic.
In the month of April, the “Blossom Time”, make it a date with Hood River. For the days you will spend here, some activities are suggested for you to engage in.
- Tour Hood River’s Fruit Loop: Spend your first day driving through or biking the thirty-five miles of nothing but fruit trees and plants in all their glory. The flowers blossom at this time at the apple, cherry, and pear orchards. This is not all. Stop at any of these orchards and get some jam, cider, fresh-baked goods, as well as other varieties of farm-made foods. You will be pleasantly surprised to see that there are baby Llamas and Alpacas in the local farms. For wine lovers, you have the option of tasting wines from one or all of the wineries in this part of town.
- The Town of Hood River: There are many places to visit in Hood River: the restaurants, the trails that are best for hiking, the special stores, galleries, and museums; breweries and craft shops, among others. If one of the days of your stay happens to be on the 2nd Saturday of the month, then you are in luck! This is because it is time for Hood River Farmers Market where you will enjoy great live music while shopping for your fresh farm produce. The Friends of the Columbia Gorge have also invented “Wiking” to participate in, i.e., having wine and hiking at the same time. What an inventive way to have fun!
- Hood River Hard-Pressed Cider Fest: The month of April every year witnesses the annual event for the cider lovers in Hood River and you should be a part of it. You will get the chance to see first-hand, how the process of cider making starts.
