Halfway

Set in a beautiful valley at the southern base of the Wallowa Mountains and just 55 miles from Baker City, Halfway is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts.

Located along the Hells Canyon Scenic Byway (All-American Road) and near the Hells Canyon National Recreation Area, visitors can enjoy hiking, rafting and jet-boating, sightseeing, camping, fishing and simply relaxing.

In winter, the community comes alive with snowmobiling enthusiasts who enjoy the easy access from town to hundreds of miles of groomed trails and wide-open play areas.
