West Linn

Situated between the the Willamette and Tualatin rivers on the southern outskirts of Portland, West Linn is one of the oldest settlements in Oregon.

With historic walking tours, jetboat excursions, a public fishing dock and strange claims to fame — the largest meteorite in North America was found here — West Linn does not disappoint. Cast a line, savor farm-to-table dining or simply kick back and enjoy the great river views.
