One of the gorgeous attractions and areas in Astoria, Oregon, is the Columbia River in the downtown area. But it’s an even more attractive place when fall arrives in downtown Astoria, Oregon.

Downtown Astoria
The downtown area is a great place to start your fall journey. You can start outside the Astoria Riverwalk Inn and find the Columbia River. In addition, you can also learn a lot about the river through a few attractions at the Columbia River Maritime Museum.

Off of the Columbia River, you will find Youngs Bay, which then pours into the Youngs River. If you travel far enough, you can visit Young’s River Falls Park, a wonderful place to see an autumnal waterfall.
