Hood River, County seat in Oregon, United States.
Located at the confluence of the Hood River and Columbia River, the city offers views of Mount Hood and the Columbia River Gorge.
Founded in 1895 after changing its name from Dog River, Hood River became the administrative center of the newly formed Hood River County in 1908.
