The Hood River Fruit Loop is a 35 mile stretch of highway located in the national scenic area known as the Columbia River Gorge. It’s about an hour from Camas, Washington and minutes from Hood River, Oregon.
Forests, farms and fruit make this a famous spot in the Pacific Northwest. The region produces seasonal harvests ranging from nuts and berries to corn and pumpkins.
The Hood River Fruit Loop is famous for it’s apples and pears too. In fact, the area leads the nation in its pear production.
This is one of the few places that offers you the complete experience of growing, producing, and then enjoying fruits and wines. It’s literally a harvest heaven for foodies and fruit lovers.
One of our favorite times to visit The Fruit Loop is during the month of October. That’s when you’ll find bins filled with colorful gourds, apples and pears.
Be forewarned, you’ll find lots of distractions too. Local farmer’s host a variety of family activities and road side fruit stands offer a variety of temptations.
Recently, The Hood River Fruit Loop 
proved to be a mighty distracting trip for these Camas area residents and their dog. Ride along with “Mac and Me,” and see what happens as we spend an October morning searching for pears.
