Take your pick! Choices abound for recreation in the Gorge.

Like snow? Consider alpine, telemark, or cross country skiing on Mount Hood, at Mount Hood Meadows, Timberline, or Skibowl. You can also snow shoe and cross country ski on many trails and almost anywhere there is snow. Mt. Hood Meadows Timberline Lodge

Ride the wind! Windsurfing has something for everyone, from beginner to expert, super swell and waves to laid back surf. Sights are on either side of the Columbia, east to west, Oregon to Washington. Dougs Big Winds Hood River Waterplay

If hiking is your thing, choose a trail, lace up your hiking boots, and go. In the spring wildflowers are abundant on Catherine Creek in Washington and Tom McCall State Park in Oregon; in the heat of the summer, Oneonta gorge will keep you cool; watch the leaves and vegetation change in the fall on the Old Highway/Twin Tunnels trail; a snow shoe winter hike on Mount Adams is wonderful for solitude!
