Oregon is a dramatic land of many changes. From the rugged Oregon seacoast, the high mountain passes of the Oregon Cascades, the lush greenery and magnificent waterfalls, to the lava and Ponderosa pines of the high desert, Oregon's natural beauty has been preserved for all to experience and enjoy.

Hike along an Oregon beach in the early morning and watch for whales. Enjoy the solitude of miles and miles of Oregon's public beaches. The historic Columbia River Highway is the best way to view the magnificent vistas and waterfalls of this area. There are also 39 wilderness areas, 14 national forests and Crater Lake, Oregon's national park, for residents and visitors alike to enjoy.

These are only a few of the adventures awaiting you on your visit to Oregon!

OREGON SPOTLIGHT

Spectacular Multnomah Falls is one of Oregon's most visited places.

The 620 foot two stage waterfall plunges off of a ledge into a pool below. Take the trail up to the lower falls, at 69 feet, and feel the cool mists of the upper falls. For the more adventuresome, the trail continues to the upper falls and the lush green forests beyond the falls.

A snack bar and the historic Multnomah Falls Lodge is located at the foot of the falls. The beautiful stone structure, built in 1925, includes a restaurant, lounge, coffee shop, gift shop and patio dining.
