For people who travel in Northwestern America, Oregon is a state that shouldn't be missed.
With half of the state's land under the jurisdiction of the United States Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management, the Willamette Valley is considered one of most fertile regions in the Northwest. Wine making has been part of this region in recent years, and you'd be remiss not to visit one of the beautiful wineries and sample a rich pinot noir or chilled riesling.
Portland is blessed to be one of the most beautiful cities in the United States. Portland is built up against the hills and the Willamette River flows from the city of Salem to wind through downtown Portland. Driving across the many bridges into town creates a scene that is second to none. Waterfront Park is the center of many concerts and other activities. This park is located close to the down town area. There are miles of river front areas to walk on and rosebushes are everywhere. Portland is known as the city of roses and to celebrate this, a rose festival is held every June.
The Columbia and Snake Rivers are the lifeblood of Oregon and entice visitors to ride the rapids, fish in the still pools, or journey on horseback along their lush and winding shores. Snaking across the state, these snow-fed rivers have provided a natural highway from the Cascade Mountains to the shores of the Pacific for centuries.
Oregon changes quickly as you move across the countryside. The great redwood trees along the coastline are quite different from the Douglas-fir stands that cover the nearby mountains. Spectacular sites like Multnomah Falls can be seen from the roadway. However, you have to climb into the wilderness to experience the unique Devil's Staircase with it's myriad of plunge pools carved into sandstone.
The great outdoors are full of opportunities to strap on your pack, jump on your bike, or grab the fishing pole to try your luck at some of Oregon's famed salmon. Hikes into remote areas lead past spectacular rock formations to crystal clear lakes, where the local wildlife come to drink.
Oregon offers one of the most well known and highly rated golf courses. This course is located at the coast and is named Bandon Dunes. There are many beautiful hotels in this area and the golf course is rated as one of the top ten golf courses in the world.
Oregon offers incredible natural beauty with a vast array of activities. From the charm of its small towns to its gorgeous coastline, stunning mountains, and bustling cities, Oregon has something for everyone. Indulge your adventurous side and make Oregon your next vacation destination.
