5 days in Vancouver Itinerary

Vancouver is a city on the north bank of the Columbia River in the U.S. State of Washington, and the largest suburb of Portland, Oregon. Get outdoors at Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area and Ecola State Park. Tillamook Air Museum and Fort Dalles Museum and Anderson Homestead will appeal to museum buffs. Get out of town with these interesting Vancouver side-trips: Cannon Beach (Bronze Coast Gallery & Cannon Beach Gallery), Seaside Inverted Experience (in Seaside) and Columbia Gorge Interpretive Center (in Stevenson). There's still lots to do: contemplate the long history of Timberline Lodge and Ski Area, take in the dramatic scenery at Multnomah Falls, see the interesting displays at International Police Museum, and visit a coastal fixture at Cape Meares Lighthouse.

To see more things to do, reviews, other places to visit, and tourist information, refer to the Vancouver online road trip planner.

In December in Vancouver, expect temperatures between 45°F during the day and 34°F at night.
