MtnHigh Posted July 6, 2002 Share Posted July 6, 2002 Cheryl I've hiked every trail in the Gorge many times over and here are my favorites. Munra Point: It's short but very interesting if you like to mix easy scrambling in your hikes. Gains about 1800' in 1.5 miles. Great views west down the Columbia. Multnomah Creek: Once you get above the Mult Falls overlook the scenery is wonderful and the crowds disappear. It also has a great finish. Hike it to the top of Larch Mtn by linking with the Oneonta trail. Mt. Defiance: Lots of elevation gain, good trail, great for aerobic minded hikers. Fill the pack with 4 gallons of water and have a ball. Get William L. Sullivan's '100 Hikes in NOrthwest Oregon'. It lists them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
