RV Road Trip; 100 Best Things to Do in Oregon 5/20

The state of Oregon is known for the diverse landscape. You will find forests, farms, mountains, and beaches within short distances from each other. The capital city is Portland, and you will find the city full of iconic shops and boutiques. Coffee shops abound, and you will be able to sample different beers at the many microbreweries. Farm-to-table restaurants will give you a taste of local cuisine, while art and historic museums will satisfy your knowledge about the past events there.

An interesting fact to note is that the capital, Portland has more breweries than any other city in the world! You will be able to choose from 60 within the city limits.

Known worldwide is the amazing Crater Lake, the deepest lake in the USA. These are just two of the many wonderful things you will find in this diverse state.

 

21. Twin Rocks

These enormous rock outcrops are to be found in Rockaway Beach. They are easily found, as they are 100-foot high. They date back 25 million years and are made of sandstone.
The town of Twin Rock has many unique shops and boutiques, and it is worth spending some time here.
A point of interest here is that Twin Rocks Undersea Memorial offers a service of scattering the ashes of deceased out at sea, and they leave from the town.

 

22. Peterson Rock Garden

You will find this amazing rock garden in the town of Redmond. It all started many years ago when a small boy started collecting pretty stones and rocks. He began to make miniature buildings, lagoons, and bridges. The collection grew until it covered some 4 acres!
The result is an amazing park with buildings, towers, bridges, and houses all made out of colored rocks.
Make sure you visit the small museum on site, and bring a picnic lunch. There is a delightful area where you can sit and have lunch.

 

23. The Hult Centre for the Performing Arts

You will find this in Eugene, in the downtown area close to the Hilton Hotel. If you enjoy going to shows of the performing arts, then make sure you check this out.
There are many restaurants close by where you can get a meal before a show, or afterwards.
Be sure to book in advance to avoid disappointment.

 

24. The Hat Museum

This interesting museum is to be found in Ladd-Reingold House, in Portland. The house was built in the early 1900’s. Notice the doors which are hung back to front, and the giant mermaid which is on the dining room ceiling. The last owner, Rebecca Reingold was an avid collector of hats, and the collection has over 900 of her collection, many of them her own designs.
After Rebecca passed away, the new owner opened the house to the public. Be sure to check out the Thanksgiving hat that actually sings!
The visit will take about a half day and is well worth seeing.

 

25. Allen Elizabethan Theatre

This is one of America’s oldest Elizabethan theatres, and it is found in Ashland. It is an open-air theatre. It is home to the annual Shakespeare Festival.
After a fire in 1947, the theatre was rebuilt and modelled on the Fortune theatre in London.
Note the different galleries and alcoves where the actors can appear.
Make sure you book your seats in advance for any show. The festival is always well-supported, so you should book tickets and accommodation in advance.
