Columbia is one of Knowlton Township's most picturesque cities, located along the eastern banks of the Delaware River. The community has gone to great lengths to protect its surrounding environmental habitats, home to areas such as the Columbia Wildlife Management Area, which protects significant area forest and stream habitats.

Columbia visitors can enjoy excellent opportunities for year-round recreation, including fishing, hiking, kayaking, and canoeing on the Delaware and Columbia Lakes.

Family-friendly Wolf Watch tours are offered at the Lakota Wolf Preserve, which protects populations of endangered Arctic, tundra, and timber wolves. Other area attractions include the beautiful Portland-Columbia Toll-Supported Pedestrian Bridge, which connects the city to nearby Pennsylvania, and the charming Brook Hollow Winery, which offers tastings and tours throughout the week.
