There's something magical about this canyon of the Columbia River that separates Washington and Oregon. Though it's only an hour from Portland, it feels like somewhere else entirely. You might feel like you're in New Zealand when you gaze at the vineyards, orchards, and lavender farms sprawled out over the rolling hills with snowy Mt. Hood in the background. And then, of course, there are the waterfalls staggered throughout the canyon including the most famous, Multnomah Falls, a 620-foot-high double cascade that looks larger than life.
