About this park
Viento is Spanish for wind, an apt name for a park in the blustery Columbia River Gorge, though the name actually comes from the first letters of three railroad tycoons, Villard, Endicott and Tolman, who built the first railroad in the area. The 270-acre park has an overnight campground; sites can be reserved online.
