Corvallis
|
Population: 50,000
|
|
| |
Home to Oregon State University, Corvallis is in many ways an archetypal college town, boasting abundant coffeehouses, pizza places and bookstores around the green, ivy-bedecked campus at its heart. But the city is just as green and vibrant outside the vicinity of the 500-acre campus, where the area maintains a small-town, country feel. |

Eugene
|
Population: 200,000
|
|
| |
Eugene is a south Willamette Valley haven nestled between the Cascade
and Coast ranges. The blue-green Willamette River and surrounding
Douglas fir forests have lent Eugene the nickname of "The Emerald
City." Rated as one of the top 10 cycling cities in the U.S., Eugene
is perhaps more famous for its eccentric residents and progressive
initiatives. |

Portland
|
Population: 1.7 million
|
|
| |
The largest urban area in Oregon, Portland is renowned as a clean,
green and friendly city. Radiating around the confluence of the
Willamette and Columbia rivers, the Portland area's lush green
cityscape and inviting, walkable neighborhoods are the result of its
mild temperate rainforest climate combined with progressive urban
planning. |

Salem
|
Population: 270,000
|

Salem is Oregon's capitol, and is also a capital place from which to launch explorations of sites both cultural and natural. Residents and visitors enjoy the tranquil beauty of the Willamette University campus, the Greek-style capitol building, and nearby state parks and recreation areas. |

Umpqua River

"Umpqua" means "thundering water" in the Chinook language, and the Wild and Scenic North Umpqua River certainly can thunder. The river is renowned for both fishing and floating. |
