The weather in the Gorge is mild enough that many top trails can be hiked and enjoyed year-round. Even so, there are few things better than hitting the trails when the daytime temperatures are still relatively mild and before the heavy rains of winter start. Add stunning pops of yellow, orange, and red to the already beautiful scenery from fall foliage, and you have a truly mesmerizing journey ahead of you this fall!
You can expect plenty of fall colors to be around in the Gorge throughout September, October, and even November. These colors contrast beautifully with the deep greens of our evergreen forests, making for a truly gorgeous display of Mother Nature at her finest.
