An overview of the efforts to rehabilitate portions of the Historic Columbia River Highway by the Friends of the HCRH
Any way you look at it, the Historic Columbia River Highway Scenic Byway is a marvel—for its visionary engineering, incredible scenery, and rich history. Internationally lauded for spectacular waterfalls, architectural gems, and magnificent overlooks of the Columbia River Gorge, it's no wonder this Byway has been called "King of Roads."

A timelapse video of the Columbia River Byway in Orgon. This drive is surrounded by a wall of huge flowing waterfalls!
The Historic Columbia River Highway is a beautiful stretch of road just outside of Portland, Oregon. Start the drive off with a stop at the Vista House viewpoint and continue on to see countless waterfalls! Some are visible from the road, like Multnomah Falls, while some are a short hike away. Make sure you make your way through Oneonta Gorge but be prepared to get wet!

In 2003, the Oregon Department of Transportation began a decade-long program to repair and replace hundreds of aging bridges statewide. In the Columbia River Gorge, ODOT rebuilt eight bridges on Interstate 84 that complement the surrounding landscape of towering waterfalls and majestic cliffs while preserving this essential and scenic highway. Watch this photo story about the Columbia River Gorge as a cultural and recreational destination in the Pacific Northwest and the economic significance of Interstate 84, which runs through the Gorge.
