Willamette Valley Vineyards

After you chow down (lunch not provided), it’s off to a breathtaking Willamette Valley Winery! Once home to fruit orchards and nurseries, this region now produces some of America’s most divine cool-climate varietals. How?

Smith Rock State Park

Our next pitstop? The legendary Smith Rock State Park, crowned as one of the 7 Wonders of Oregon! Climbing fanatics have been flocking to its towering rock spires since the 80s, but now, adventure junkies of all stripes are answering the call. While the park’s name continues to spark heated debates, some say it’s in honor of John Smith, a Linn County lawman, or Pvt. Volk Smith, a soldier who plummeted to his untimely death in the midst of a battle with the Northern Paiute tribe way back in 1863. The mystery endures!
