Very much appreciated! I moved to Oregon from Vegas a couple of months ago, and I'm still figuring out places to go. Also, very much out of shape now, but I'd rather get out in all of the green than hop on a treadmill. Thank you!

Perfect timing! My family is planning their trip right now I will send this to all of them! Thanks !! 😍

Love love this video! Now I'm able to see the hikes and say "I Hiked that"! Well more these last 2 years since I found HikeOregon, thank you for all your hard work putting these together for us!

One of my favorite hiking channels.

Awesome! Welcome to Oregon. Make sure to pick up my hiking guide book ‘Oregon’s Best Views’ and the website has a ton of great hikes on it too (the book hikes are exclusive to the book though). Www.Hikeoregon.Net

Awesome video and info I am so excited for spring hiking!

Oregon looks like an incredible place to hike - definitely on my radar now. Thank you for showing the beauty of your playground to us :-)

Very informative. Thank you for sharing! I want to try them all! Love Oregon:)👍😍

Great job! Can’t wait to check these out

This is awesome, thank you! Planning my first trip to the west coast over spring break this year.

A good hike is what the doctor orders! Fun getting out and exercising the muscles!

Love it thanks for sharing. Only done a few being mostly a WA hiker, look forward to doing the rest!

Took your advice and went to Steins Pillar yesterday. Loved it!! The only thing I would add is make sure you have AWD or 4WD...that dirt road up to the trail head is a bit bumpy. Totally going to try another one of your recommendations next weekend!! Thanks!

Lovely areas to hike in for sure! In my area, we have a smaller yet very natural feature packed forest.

Yea Oregon is huge and there are many places I could recommend. For 6 days and if you don’t want to do a ton of driving, it’s a bit difficult. Bend is one of the nicest places with lots of hiking nearby, but next year is the first year of the limited entry permit system so many of the awesome hikes will require getting a limited entry permit.

From Bend you can drive to Crater Lake. Then you can drive back via hwy. 138 and check out tons of waterfalls along that highway and then go back up north (I'm assuming Portland) via I-5.
