The Astoria Column
The Astoria Column has served for over 80 years as a beacon on the Pacific Northwest Coast. It sits in a wooded area 600 feet above sea level on Coxcomb Hill, Astoria`s highest point.
Offering majestic views of the countryside surrounding Astoria, it`s worth a visit and the climb! Discover the vast Pacific Ocean to the West and the mighty Columbia River to the North. Not to mention the snow-capped volcanoes of the Cascade Range that rise to the east and Saddle Mountain on the southern horizon.
Take in these beautiful landscapes at this monument built to honor the `hardship, bravery, and awe experienced by the first people to live in this corner of the world.`
