Astoria, OR
About
Located in northern Oregon near the point where the Columbia River collides with the Pacific Ocean, Astoria features magnificent natural and manmade beauty. The city was founded in 1811, making it the first area settled west of the Rockies. Spectacular Victorian-era architecture, many housing unique shops and fantastic eateries, line the city’s steep, hilly streets and the famous Astoria Column sits atop the highest peak on Coxcomb Hill. By climbing the 160-plus steps to the top, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the river, the Pacific and multiple snow-covered volcanic peaks. The Astoria Riverwalk is perfect for enjoying the waterfront, stretching over four miles from the Astoria-Megler Bridge. Watch the myriad vessels come and go and the sea lions piled up on the docks. Visitors and locals enjoy many recreational opportunities on the water and land, from kayaking, paddleboarding and fishing to hiking and biking.
