Taking Oregon trip what are the best places to visit?
Im from Oregon. And Imy fiancee and I are panning a trip there from Illinois on Amtrak. He has lived in the midwest all his life and has never seen the ocean or mountains. In you opinion what are some of the best scenic and most beautifull spots to take him to? I personally love Heceta Head Lighthouse beach, and Cannon beach was always a favorite of mine. We would like to go to the beach,fish,maybe see some waterfalls ect.. Thanks for the help!
So most likely, you will be coming down the Columbia Gorge on the Washington side in the train as you approach Portland in the morning. You'll see the Columbia Gorge (river and cliffs, maybe waterfalls) in the morning light from the train. I'll assume you will rent a car once you arrive in Portland and will have lots of time to drive the state.
Seeing that he has never seen real mountains or the ocean, doesn't narrow the options much for the great state of Oregon. On the train, you will traverse the Rocky Mountains with some fairly amazing views, so lets focus on the Coast.
Driving 101 is certainly the most complete option for the "never-seen-the-ocean" set, but your time could be better optimized. Seeing that you would not hesitate to go as far south as Heceta Head is a good sign. Of course the southern end of the Oregon Coast is much more scenic than the northern end, but to a coastal newbie the northern coast will still take his breath away. Go to Ecola State Park and Indian Beach. Go to Cape Perpetua. Go to Oregon Dunes.
If you want a stretch goal, go to Gold Beach and take the Rogue River jet boat full-day ride 62 miles up river to Paradise Lodge and back. You should especially do this if you plan to go as far as Crater Lake.
