 | | Willamette Valley Oregon | | | Welcome to Willamette Valley Oregon! The Willamette Valley is nestled between the coastal and cascade mountain ranges. Its temperate year round climate makes it a perfect location as the heart of the Oregon wine country and for the creation of world class wines. The valley takes its name from the river that flows through it. Historic cities and towns, settled more than a hundred years ago by emigrants from all over the world, are found throughout the region, but the area is perhaps best known for its diverse agriculture, which includes all kinds of vegetables, fruits, flowers, herbs, nuts, hops, and Christmas trees. |
| | | | Must visit attractions (besides the wineries!) include the Siuslaw National Forest and the Willamette National Forest, both offering hundreds of opportunities for outdoor recreation, year round. There are also some great state recreation sites in this region to temp visitors. |
