Wallowas

If your goal is to go hiking and be challenged, then this is your place. The most extraordinary hiking in Oregon is here. Eaglecap Wlderness has the biggest views of the area. Some of our favorite hikes are Maxwell Lake and Icelake. We saw mountain goats, had two thigh burning hiking days and the most relaxing time at the lakes.

Cascade Lakes

If water sports are your flavor, then the Cascades Lakes are where you should be. Mountain Biking, boating, SUPing, fishing, hiking and anything else you can think of. Sparks Lake is great for SUPing, Elk lake is where you go to boat and hike around Todd Lake. For fishing, you will just need to find a river and some lakes still have trout.

Sand Dunes

When we first came to Oregon, we didn’t realize that there were any sand dunes. It took about 4 visits until we knew. Then we found multiples. Florence sand dunes are the best for ATVing, Pacific City’s is the best for some running around fund and if you want to camp near ones, then Christmas Valley is your place.
