Oregon
Oregon is a state of natural wonders and you will find amazing beauty throughout, with historic towns and sleepy fishing villages to ski resorts and wineries. Windswept beaches, verdant forests and snow-capped peaks give way to sweeping rangelands, towering rock formations and dramatic river valleys in this incredibly diverse land.
Besides 363 miles of pristine public beaches, high-desert country, painted hills and wine-producing valleys, Oregon is home to North America’s deepest river gorge (Hells Canyon), the country's deepest lake (Crater Lake) and the world’s second-most-climbed mountain (Mt. Hood), which also happens to host North America’s only year-round ski season.
Portland is a hip urban hotspot known for its fresh cuisine, vibrant arts scene and funky shopping districts. Portland’s legendary beauty is surpassed only by the myriad of cultural opportunities, indie music and performing arts available. The microbreweries, museums, wine bars and arts enclaves of Oregon's biggest city are easily accessed by an award-winning public transit system. The city has many intriguing neighbourhoods, each with a unique flavour and heritage. You’ll find the arts, nightlife, and fashion thriving in The Pearl District, the cultural heart of downtown, whilst Nob Hill has plenty of boutique shops in which to take advantage of Oregon’s no sales tax, and all are set against the magnificent backdrop of Mt. Hood.
