11Trillium Lake Trip, Oregon
Pretty Trillium Lake is close to Mount Hood. Kayaking here can be a great day trip from Portland. The drive should take you less than two hours. From the lake, you will enjoy a picture-perfect view of majestic Mount Hood.
Visit in the morning on a clear day and see it reflected in the lake. The lake encompasses 63 acres and it’s generally calm so it’s a great place even for beginner kayakers. Rentals are not available at the lake itself, so you’ll have to bring your own or rent one locally. Parking will cost you $10.00 per vehicle and the lake has a boat ramp.
