EXPERIENCE A WINTER PLAYGROUND!  Winter is a special time in Oregon’s Mt. Hood Territory. Oooh, there’s nothing more exhilarating than a winter day outdoors, skiing or snowboarding down Mt. Hood or taking in the forest’s quiet splendor exploring the miles of Government Camp area cross country ski and snowshoe trails. Ride the Timberline Express Ski Shuttle for a day of skiing at Timberline Lodge & Ski Area or spend a relaxing day exploring the history of the national historic Lodge or savor the Fireside Brunch Buffet. Take the family on a horse-drawn sleigh, rent tubes or toboggans, or go zoom-zoom on a snowmobile at Mt. Hood Skibowl. Our parks and forest trails are perfect for hiking. Anytime is great for a romantic getaway. Snuggle up with your honey in a cozy retreat or beside a crackling fire, be playful on a sleigh ride, or get pampered with a spa treatment. Your choices for winter adventures and romantic getaways are endless!

There is plenty of tax-free shopping and dining, and choose from a wide variety of many urban, country, or mountain lodging picks. Whatever your pleasure, now is the time to warm up to winter and the holidays with a GREAT WINTER GETAWAYS package.
