Latourell FallsWaterfall10.8 mi from Gresham▾
A 249-foot waterfall in the Columbia River Gorge that drops straight off an overhanging basalt cliff within Guy W. Talbot State Park, named for French-Canadian settler Joseph Latourell. The falls sit along the Historic Columbia River Highway, opened in 1916 as the nation's first scenic highway and deliberately routed to showcase waterfalls like this one.
Portland Union StationHistoric Site11.6 mi from Gresham▾
Opened in 1896 with a 150-foot clock tower that still tells time via its original Seth Thomas clock, this Romanesque station once served five different railroads simultaneously, with over 120 trains arriving and departing daily by the 1920s.
Oregon Iron Company FurnaceHistoric Site12.7 mi from Gresham▾
Fired up in 1867, this was the first blast furnace on the Pacific Coast and remains the only one of its kind still standing west of the Rockies; at its peak the surrounding ironworks employed more than 600 people before cheaper imported iron and the Panic of 1893 forced its closure by 1894.
Bridal Veil FallsWaterfall12.9 mi from Gresham▾
A 118-foot, two-tiered waterfall in the Columbia River Gorge that ran nearly dry for decades after a lumber company diverted its creek to power a sawmill beginning in 1886. The mill closed in 1960 and the flumes were removed, restoring the falls, which are now reached from the historic Columbia River Highway.
Coopey FallsWaterfall13.7 mi from Gresham▾
A 150-foot horsetail waterfall on Coopey Creek in the Columbia River Gorge near Bridal Veil, Oregon, reached via the Angel's Rest Trail off the Historic Columbia River Highway. It's the first of two falls hikers encounter on the route, with Upper Coopey Falls a short distance beyond.
