Hikes · Oregon
Best hikes in Oregon.
Oregon runs waterfalls in the Columbia Gorge, volcanoes in the Cascades, and a wild, fully public coast — mossy and green west of the mountains, high desert east. The Gorge hikes go nearly year-round; the volcano summits are a short summer window. Expect drizzle and bring layers.
