Weekend Trips in Portland
1. Astoria, Portland
As the setting for The Goonies, a trip to Astoria comes recommended for movie fans. Regardless of its film-fame, the town is lush with greenery and lined with charming Victorian houses. Also, admire the Columbia River estuary.
2. Cannon Beach, Portland
A picturesque little city that has all the makings of the perfect coastal gem: miles of sandy beaches, home-industry stores and cafes, and unique boutiques in the city centre. Of course, with a general laid-back, relaxed vibe to boot.
3. Bend, Portland
The three hour drive is well worth it to experience the pristine views, crisp fresh air, and all the outdoor activities this little town has to offer 🗻🏕️🌄. Think glassy lakes, rivers, ski resorts, and mountain trails galore.
