We see your Wonders, world. And raise you 7 of our own.

We invite you to not just see Oregon’s 7 Wonders, but experience them. Because our Wonders aren’t just for taking pictures of – to truly say you’ve seen our Wonders, you have to get out of the car, hike down from the scenic vista and feel them beneath your feet.

Just remember: This is Oregon. So how you go about doing that is entirely up to you.

Travelers can experience some of the best scenery the state has to offer along an Oregon Electric Byway.

Oregon is home to one of the largest and most robust networks of electric vehicle fast-charging stations in the U.S. And in between the many EV charging stations are scenic routes dotted with environmentally friendly businesses — hotels, spas, wineries, breweries and restaurants. So while you’re busy practicing sustainable travel along the woodsy back roads of Oregon, stop by an charming landmark and charge your car. Driving an electric car through Oregon definitely has its perks.

We don’t like to play favorites. But now and then a story comes along that makes you want to pack your bags and hit the road.

These are those stories. They’re the kind of narratives that transport you to new places — from the sun-soaked summit of a remote mountain range to the front-row seat at a sold-out Shakespearean play — and completely transform your idea of travel.

It can seem like Oregon’s always posing for a picture.

Those surging waterfalls might appear staged, but trust us, that’s just how they are. Our misty coastline looks like it stretches as far as the eye can see because it really does. These dramatic river canyons aren’t trying to impress you, but it’s okay if you think that. Just give yourself a little pinch every now and then so you know that Oregon isn’t faking it and you’re really here.

Oregon is green. And we’re not just talking about the trees.

Sustainable travel is a form of travel that aims to sustain or enhance the geographical character of a place — its environment, culture, aesthetics, heritage and the well-being of residents. Learn about sustainable travel in Oregon, check out our EV itineraries and leave a lighter footprint.

There’s no reason to leave your four-legged friend at home.

Pets are welcomed in many places across the state. You know what makes Oregon’s 363 miles of public coastline, green forests and sparkling mountain lakes even better? Getting to take your best friend along with you.

In Oregon, Shakespeare meets indie-pop, and nobody is surprised.

Get a taste of the Oregon food and drink you’ve been hearing about: grab a seat at the table at a farm dinner, crush wine grapes at the vineyard or celebrate Oregon’s prized flavors, from chocolate and cheese to fresh seafood.

Oregon’s motto is famously “She flies with her own wings,” and Oregonians embody this spirit every day — a celebrated anthem for the history, heritage and people who made this place what it is today.

Our little haven in the Pacific Northwest is a place where Indigenous people have lived since time immemorial, displaced by white settlers who arrived via the Oregon Trail. It’s a place where bold women and men built pioneer communities — many of which are still thriving today.

Along came Oregon statehood in 1859 and a long line of elected leaders over the next century who took bold action to make Oregon one of the cleanest, most sustainably minded states in the nation, enacting protections on public spaces for all.

Despite many barriers, Oregon’s communities were becoming a place where Japanese, Chinese, Latino and European immigrants and Black Americans arrived as laborers and entrepreneurs, laying the literal foundation of the state today. In the early 20th century, Oregonians were part of the great swell of activism that took hold of the U.S. — one that’s become a refuge for applied idealism. Oregon is a place for dreamers, a place with a unique voice, a sense of humor, and a drive to do things differently. It’s a place of authenticity, of intimacy, of stories, where dreams are still a real possibility.
