Mt. Hood Loop Map
Distance is about 160 miles through Portland, Gresham, and Hood River via Highway 26, Highway 35, and I-84. The route I've created has you go onto the Historic Highway 30 driving past the many famous waterfalls that dot the landscape in the Columbia River Gorge. This is optional as you can simply stay on I-84 all the way back to Portland. However if you have the time the slight detour is something I highly recommend. Check road conditions as this is mostly only pleasurable during the spring and summer months.
