Getting to the Park

Coming from Portland
From Portland, there are two routes that take you to Beacon Rock State Park. The route that google claims is shorter takes you to the Washington Side of the Columbia and along highway 14. This is a very pretty drive, but at the present it is Not Shorter. There is a good deal of construction happening this way.

The route I recommend
Take highway 84 and Stay on the Oregon side of the river until you reach the Bridge of the Gods at Cascade locks. Bridge of the Gods is a toll bridge and costs 1$ per car. Once you're over the bridge head west on highway 14 until you get to the park.
