Top Places To Visit
The unmissable Oregon
The Coast
Nearly 400 miles of rugged Pacific shoreline — dramatic rock formations, lighthouses, sandy beaches and the world-class Oregon Coast Aquarium in Newport. Whale watching, fishing, surfing and clifftop hikes throughout.
Metro Portland
Civic-minded, park-laced and food-obsessed, with snow-capped volcanoes in the backyard and the Willamette running through downtown. Microbreweries, museums, wine bars and the MAX light rail straight from the airport.
Mt. Hood & the Columbia River Gorge
A National Scenic Area of towering cliffs, fruit orchards and world-class windsurfing, anchored by year-round skiing, hiking and biking on Mt. Hood — all a short drive from Portland.
The Willamette Valley
Oregon's agricultural heart and pinot noir capital. Roadside farm stands, historic towns, paved bike paths and tasting rooms around Eugene, Corvallis, Newberg and McMinnville.
Southern Oregon
Crater Lake's impossibly blue water, world-class rafting and fishing rivers, the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland, and the preserved gold-rush town of Jacksonville.
Central Oregon
A sports paradise of sun and snow around Bend — fly-fishing, golf, rock climbing, mountain biking and the High Desert Museum, set against a volcanic geological backdrop.
Eastern Oregon
The spirit of the West in high-desert country — Oregon Trail wagon ruts, Chief Joseph country, frontier towns, ranching history and the legendary Pendleton Round-Up rodeo.
