Mitchell Point parking lot
Beginning of Mitchell Point Trail

Description:

Mitchell Point is a moderate hike to an exceptional lookout point in the Columbia River Gorge. Because it is such a short hike, it is quite popular with folks who want to watch the sunrise or sunset. 
The parking lot is right off of I-84 and it isn't very large, with room for about 20 cars. The trail starts off heading uphill through a lush forest. There are 6 switchbacks right away, and then you come to a section of trail that feels like it is going straight uphill as you gain 300 feet of elevation in just 0.3 miles. The trail is generally pretty rocky, even some of the sections that are through the forest. 


​
Mitchell Point Trail forest
Rocky section of Mitchell Point Trail
There is one section in particular where you have to navigate larger rocks that are very loose. Make sure you wear good footwear on this hike to avoid twisting an ankle. At around the 0.6 mile mark you will start to see some views of the Columbia River to the north. At the 0.75 mile mile you will come to an area that has undergone some brush clearing and it can be a little bit confusing as to where to go. Keep in mind you are still heading uphill, so keep following the path that goes uphill towards the north. 
First viewpoint along Mitchell Point Trail
The last 0.2 mile push to the summit is very steep and you are walking on loose rock/gravel which is easy to slip on, especially on the way back down. Trekking poles will help a lot. The top of Mitchell Point is NOT for the faint of heart or for those who are afraid of heights or cliff drop offs. The summit is very small and narrow and there are sheer 900 foot drop offs on all three sides of you. If you do decide to venture out to the top most vantage point, please be careful. It is not worth risking your life for a picture! Because of the drop offs, it is not recommended that you bring dogs up here. It is not only dangerous for them, but also for you when they are on leash, as well as for others who might be uncomfortable with dogs. From the top of Mitchell point you can look down at the Columbia River and you will see it stretch to the east and west for as far as the eyes ​​​can see, and the hills stretch out in front of you, lush and green like a painting.​ ​It is definitely a sight to see and the Columbia River Gorge provides some of the best sunsets, which makes this lookout point a popular destination. If you do visit here for sunset, please be very careful coming back down when it is dark. 
summiting Mitchell Point
Columbia River Gorge from Mitchell Point
Mitchell Point is a stunning Columbia Gorge viewpoint hike that is not for the faint of heart and those afraid of heights. Even though the hike to the top is short, it is gruelingly steep and very rocky. It is rated 'moderate' because of the steepness and rockiness of the trail, as well as the exposure at the top. Hike Oregon doesn't usually like to put limitations on young ones, but it should be noted that this is not a kid friendly hike!
