Sharing Oregon's best hiking trails

ABOUT
Welcome to Iconic Oregon Hikes.  
As a lifelong Oregon resident and avid hiker,  there is so much beauty that Oregon's outdoors has to offer.  Iconic Oregon Hikes is a site where I share some of the most beautiful trails found in Oregon. From the lush coastal range, the majestic Columbia River Gorge, the volcanic terrain of Central Oregon, to the rugged peaks of the Mt. Hood National Forest and the Eastern Oregon wilderness-- Oregon offers an abundance of scenic trails to hike. I hope you enjoy the photos and can experience them for yourself.

Happy Hiking!
