Discover The Dalles RV rentals for memorable road trips
The Dalles is a large town on the Columbia River in northern Oregon, just over an hour's drive from Portland. Before The Dalles was a major city and the seat of Wasco County, it was a massive trading center for indigenous people for 10,000 years. This historically significant stretch of land was one of the most important regional trading hubs on the entire continent at one point in time. The interesting name of the city is said to come from the French word “dalle,” describing the flagstones or slabs of rock that create rapids in the mighty Columbia River.
