The trail drops abruptly at what all would consider its end about a mile away from the trailhead. Fortunately or not, this last mile is actually an old country road that passes a few hundred feet below the gorge highway (State Highway 14) only to intersect with it at the very end.

Technically speaking, this last stretch of road is part of the Cape Horn Trail, and is picturesque enough to warrant that categorization.

"This was an excellent stay. The host is wonderful. Communicative and responsive. The flat itself was very comfortable and convenient. Great location within walking distance of pubs, restaurants and shopping, and quick driving distance to most of the city.

"This property was perfect for my wife and I as we visited family nearby. Courtney has done a fabulous job of creating a cozy retreat that has everything we needed including a kitchenette, washer/dryer, and a comfortable bed. Courtney was very attentive and wanted to make our stay was everything we wanted it to be. She even provided some fresh eggs from her chicken coup. We will be back for sure. Thanks!"

"My wife and I stayed at this home during our Columbia River Gorge hiking vacation and couldn’t have been happier with our experience. Well cared for and perfect for a couple or two. Everything was in top shape and it’s so close to some of the best day hikes in the gorge and only an hour away from Mount Hood. "
