About Oregon
With all the scenic attractions the state has to offer, it’s no surprise that Oregon is a popular Hollywood filming site (Free Willy and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest are among two of the more popular ones). Located on the Pacific coast, the natural beauty of Oregon makes it a very popular holiday destination. Similar to California, Oregon is geographically very diverse. With mountains and waterfalls, forests and beaches, deserts and lakes – this state is a nature lover’s paradise.
Things to Do in Oregon
Portland is the state’s most popular and cosmopolitan city. Lan Su Chinese Garden, the Oregon Zoo and the Portland Art Museum are some frequented tourist attractions in the city. Portland has multiple bike paths and bike-friendly buses and trains, making biking a favorite tourist activity. Home to Nike’s headquarters, it’s no wonder that Portlanders love to run and the city offers many traffic-free jogging paths. Portland also allows you to kayak right through downtown - a great way to explore the city.
Oaks Bottom and Smith and Bybee lakes are two protected wildlife sanctuaries frequented by visitors. Day trips could include hiking the trails around Mount Hood and in the Columbia River Gorge. During the winter months, Mount Hood's 4 ski resorts are very popular with skiers and snowboarders. Take a day trip to Multnomah Falls or go see the volcanoes of the rugged and glaciated Cascade Mountain Range. Crater Lake National Park, Oregon’s only national park is perhaps the most popular tourist destination in the state. Tourists love camping there and visiting Crater Lake, the deepest lake in the country. Even the scenic drive along the Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) is an experience in itself.
Salem, Oregon’s capital city, houses the iconic Oregon State Capitol building. Ashland, located in southern Oregon, is famous for hosting the Tony Award-winning Oregon Shakespeare Festival. Eugene, Corvallis, Astoria, Oregon City and Bend are some other popular cities in Oregon. Wherever you choose to go, you cannot leave without visiting one of Oregon’s many famous breweries – Oregon beer is world famous.
