Bonus Oregon Bucket List: Oregon’s Seven Wonders

This guide barely scratches the surface of what Oregon has to offer.  Eastern Oregon, for one, has much to explore but is more difficult to get to due to long drive times, hot weather, and a deficit of gas stations. This guide does, however, take you to all but one of Oregon’s Seven Wonders:

  1. Columbia River Gorge
  2. Crater Lake
  3. Mt. Hood
  4. Painted Hills
  5. Oregon Coast
  6. Smith Rock
  7. The Wallowas

Feel free to add your own stops onto this guide, and explore as much as you can!
