Check to see if the Multnomah Falls is open first. It was in the path of the fires this year and has been closing for clean up and repairs.
Many farms in the area have “corn mazes” for people to enjoy and some have fresh pumpkins available to purchase.
Also, Lloyd Center mall is beautiful this time of year, and you can shop while you enjoy the scenery.
Just a short hop south on I-5 is “The Enchanted Forest” amusement part. It is a beautiful fall hike to explore. You can also explore the state capital grounds in Salem. They are beautiful.
